Tire recall.

It wouldn't hurt to check any off-brand tires that may have been bought for trucks or trailers lately.
Another Chinese product!

This is just another reason not to scrimp when it comes to trailer tires! Stick with the one that are proven to work. Stick with a name brand! Damn Chinese crap! Jim

The company that I work for has been buying a lot of products from China and it is all junk. Flunks all the dimensional and material spec's. They just can't pass up the price. In the long run it will cost us customers. I guess they didn't see the ABC news segment that polled Americans about Chinese products. Eighty percent felt that Chinese products were either unsafe or inferior. Its time to think about our saftey and well being. Besides that its well documented that they are using the profits to build a world class military machine. What do you think will happen when they get to that point.
