AS A SELLER OF TIRES WE HAVE BEEN TELLING TIRE BUYERS FOR YEARS CHEAP “CHINESE TIRES WILL LAST LESS THAN A GOOD USED TIRE.”
EVERYDAY OF THE WEEK A WELL MADE MICHELIN, PIRELLI, CONTINENTAL OR GOODYEAR WILL OUT LAST A CHEAP CHINESE MADE TIRE.
Trent Telenko a retired Pentagon staff specialist and military blogger,suggests Russia’s tires may be the number one cause for the convoys’ problems. Telenko says”When you leave military truck tires in one place for months on end” the sidewalls will get brittle from dry rot and will fail. Karl T. Muth who is a tire expert says. Those are not Soviet-era heavy truck radials. Muth says he believes they are using Yellow Sea YS20 tires made in China, which are a copy of the excellent Michelin-made XZL military tire.
