Only have about 4,000 miles on mine at this point but so far no problems.

I don't think all "Chinese" made tires are inferior. From what I've seen there are certain plants in certain provinces (Shandong) that seem to produce the majority of the "bombs" so just being "Chinese" isn't the driving factor; it goes deeper than that from what I can tell. Probably who owns the plant, oversight, production criteria, QC etc.
