When I bought my 05 truck used in 07 with 23k miles on it I soon noticed cracks in the sidewalls of the Michelin tires. The local NTB told me to bring it in for inspection.

The reason tire manufacturers have gone to China is two fold. One is cheap labor but also there are no environmental restrictions in China. The EPA is shutting down America one industry at a time. Keep in mind we all live on this planet together and eventually China's polution will effect all of us. America is a nation, not a planet.
