Sound Chinese and never considered them. While pricing Michelin XPS Ribs at a local high volume dealer he asked what I wanted them for. Told him to replace the Load Stars on the BH. He said save a couple of hundred bucks and get a better tire, Hankooks. Kind of floored me until he gave me details. They sell them to most all truckers who don't want tire trouble. MADE by Michelin! One of the few ALL steel belted tires. 14 ply! He said there is no way I would have any tire trouble on my Fifth Wheel. They are 750R16 and will be about an inch bigger than my OEM tires. Probably will have to eBay my Bal-Chocks. Asked it he would take my barely used tires in trade. Just laughed! Said the were only good enough to get a trailer out of the factory and he wouldn't sell them to anyone.
