chinese tyres

ive just completed 3000 miles on a set of sailun terramax cvr,Β£88.40 each.after watching a video on the tyres being tested by motoring experts,up against premium tyres,i thought they are worth a try,by the way im in the motoring trade and have seen and driven on bad Chinese tyres that wear rapid and don't grip at all!!but after a few long hard drives in extremely wet conditions i cant fault them. you can see a u tube video on the being tested and make your own minds up!.up date 6000 miles done on these ,been off road,been in extreme wet, wearing great,cant fault them so far.

The 6 Pirelli Scorpion A/T Plus tyres which I just bought are made in China! http://www.freel2.com/forum/topic32292.html Not a lot we can do about it! Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

Suppose not everything that comes from there will be rubbish. If it wasn't so bad it'd be funny.

Right I now refuse to buy anything Japanese either as they kill Whales.
Didn't know they make tyres out of bear bile. There you go learn something new every day. If it wasn't so bad it'd be funny.

Bear bile is used in some stupid quack Chinese medicine. Evil or Very Mad

Hopefully, some reduction in greyhound racing.

Down under authorities looking into Chinese alternative medicine found a lot of products with different ingredients. Also, honey coming into Australia has been blended with other things. More to come on this one & it looks like it's totally out of control. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

Can I ask do you have same views on horse racing? If it wasn't so bad it'd be funny.

But the horses love it.....................

Yes they love being carted across the country in a truck then be expected to leap out and win a race in blazing heat whilst being battered by a jockey who doesn’t even know the horse.......... Shocked

Surely if political correctness is abound you should really put 'Other dogs breeds are available' as not to single out one certain breed?
