I've had the inferior Chinese tires, one that blew at interstate speed did $4,200 worth of damage. Had a road service come change the tire, and subsequently found the left rear tire would continuously wear out on the inside. Finally found a trailer alignment place and they straightened the axle. The tech showed me where "someone" had used a jack half way to the midpoint of the axle, resulting in bending the axle. Don't every let anyone jack your fiver except at the springs, and as close to the inside of the tire as possible. BTW, wound up sending all 5 Chinese tires back to the west coast for some reimbursement as all the tires had steel belts coming through the tire tread or sidewall.
