Tireco is the company that supplied the dreaded MISSION bombs. Up mid 08 they put them on the Montanas. They replaced the shredded Mission bombs with Freestars which lasted even less time. They seem to specialize in Chinabombs. Sometime in 08 Keystone dropped them and started using Marathon bombs. I replaced my Mission/Freestars with Marathons after 3K$ in damage and they lasted about the same length of time as the Missions. I now have the REAL G-614s, made in USA and heavy as hell but I feel better having them on the rig then I did the Marathons..
Dave, it's not that they specialize in China bombs, it's that the only place you can buy trailer tires any more, unless you go up in rating/size. It sucks, but it's true.
