Hankook AH11 245/75-19.5

I've read great things about the Hankook brand of tires as a replacement for Goodyear, Michelin, etc I have a 1999 Winnebago Adventurer 32J 245/75-19.5
The tires have a date code of 08 2013 BUT they are stamped made in China.
Are these the same tires that everyone is having such good luck with?
I'm worried I got junk Chinese tires.

  • Most tires are now made in China including most of the top brands. Michelin even makes tires in China but so fa not for the U.S. market

    By the way I just got some Sampson's 19.5 and they have a July 2013 date and are made in Mexico.
    It is not where a tire is made it is the amount of oversight the tire company exerts on the manufacturer.

    Yours were made in March 2013.
