I am with grayghost03 and the statements made by the tire dealers, we have no idea what damage might be done to the tread area or the sidewall by hitting a curb or any object even at slow speed. One of the tire dealers here has a large glass bucket, in it are things that have been taken out of tires that have been in for repair, some had blown and some had not. The assortment of items was amazing.
I was required to pull off into the inspection area at a Canadian border crossing when returning home last year, these area's are not designed for a 65' long rig to get around in without dropping over the curb when exiting. I knew I had done so and cringed and cussed at the possible damage I might have done even at a very slow speed.
This damage "may" occur without regard to the origin of the tire or it's designation as a LT or ST tire, but the end result will likely be the same if damage does occur.
