don't put any tire on your truck or trailer that is made in china.
That is a pretty bold statement. Especially when most new vehicles and trailers come with factory tires...often made in China.
You are absolutely correct. Most American companies have been manufacturing their tires in China or wherever in order to make money. All tires that are sold here, have to go through stringent testing.
That is actually incorrect - both wheels are tires are built to a specification based on testing, but there is no destructive testing performed on the product to verify how well it conformed to that spec. I just went through this with the NTSB on a wheel grievance.
It's not hard to make sure you are driving on US tires, just read the label in the sidewall and if it says China, replace them.
