    That Does not surprise me at all!! I have seen too many Chinese tires shred themselves for no reason!! And that is on all kinds of cars!! People fall for the cheap price and forget that they are getting a truly cheap product!!

    Depends on what are you looking for! On my Truck, nothing but BFG All Terrains. One of the best tire bargains I've been recommending to people has been Sumitomo. They are Japanese made and are really high quality. Specially for the price!! I have a set under my Bimmer now and am very happy with them!!
