Geez, another tire thread that has denigrated into a "my tires are better than your tires" disagreement. Imagine that.

Let it go, people. No one knows these things for sure on here. We don't make the tires. We buy the tires. We can speak to which tires have worked for us and which ones haven't.

In the long run, you are not better or worse based on which tires make you happy and feel good about your purchase. Let's get back to the OP's original post.

Are TK's the infamous China Bombs?-yes.
What would you recommend?-anyhing not made in Shandong Province.

And be sure to get fresh tires by checking the manufacture date stamped on the tire.
