Those are some huge welds!
I've seen them up close and they look to do a very good job. How good? We had a dodge come through for a rotation/reblance and flat repair. I spotted them in the parking lot, pulled in the truck and told another tech we couldn't do the repair since they were retreads. He looked at them and said they weren't retreads. I said look again, toyo doesn't make an mtr, and after about 30 seconds he realized I was right. I played out this same scenario with another tech and one of the higher ranking managers, all of which initially thought I was high.That said, we couldn't do the repair since they were retreads...
Most places wont touch retreads due to liability reasons.
I work for a big company that won't stake their reputation on stuff like that. Had a set of these come through the other day again, this time a "new" set that we mounted. Again, nobody else noticed till I said something, and again, I got an "are you sure" from a couple of them. I just pointed to the sidewall and said "I'm pretty sure bfg doesn't make mtr" That said, they took god awful amounts of weight to balance because they ran out like the beads weren't seated, despite being seated. They looked good otherwise, but that wouldn't sit well with me
starting to sound like you work with a bunch a tards.............. dare i say "schwab's" lol

let me requote....I would figure, ANYONE who works with tires would see something like this and atleast think something is up.... but then again, most "tire shops" are not accustomed to seeing m/t type tires
