PSA buyer beware

I was just about to push the button on a new set of Pirelli Diablo for the duckie when I noticed the rear was stamped “Made in China”. Sorry but not trusting my life to that.  Ended up going with Dunlops made in Japan.

I don’t disagree.

Pirellis made in China.   Thanks for the heads up.

To be fair I was about to order from Amazon so they could be counterfeit…but still all the more reason to pay attention.  Counterfeit Chinese tires are even more scary than production😬

To be honest, I will not buy tires that was not sold in the US.

For that reason I bought the Dunlops from my local dealer instead of online.

I've had good experience with DennisKirk and at one point from eBay via a local distributor.
