This is a fallacy put forth by those that do not understand the global manufacturing market, have never been to a high tech manufacturing plant in China (as I have),dont realize some of the best brands in the world are Mfg in China to exacting standards and continue to spread misinformation about China and it's people.
Maybe just because they are Chinese?
The Chinese are the highest paid and best educated and most literate of all of Asia's workforces except the for the Japanese.
My feeling is that those that continue to pound this drum have ulterior motives based in Cultural, Racial and political differences, NOT the quality of the manufacturing.
"No such thing as a China bomb". I actually purchased a full set of five Chinese manufactured tires for my FW a few years ago from Discount Tire. Four were installed on the axles, and one on the spare. The spare was covered by a white cover. Months later, we were sitting in the back yard and heard a sound from the RV like a shotgun going off. When we checked it out, the spare tire had literally blown to shreds. It ripped the spare tire cover to pieces. This tire had never been on the road, and was less than one year old, covered and protected from the sun. I've never seen that happen with another tire, whether it was made by Asians, Europeans or Americans. Contrary to your opinion, most of us are not racists such as you infer. We just know crappy quality when we see and experience it.
You can search my posts and find that I reported it on this forum when the incident occurred.
