tscook's Full Review: Nankang Trailer Tires Utility Tire
We purchased a 2002 New Vision 5th wheel, used, in May, 2003. It had 5 brand new 2003 Nankang tires, one as a spare. We just returned from a 2000 mile round trip from Ohio to Oklahoma yesterday. We had 3 of these brand new tires fail on this trip. The first, 70 miles from home, separated and lost a patch of tread. The second went flat north of Nashville on the return trip. It has suspicious threads coming from between the tread. Then 30 miles from home, the most dangerous failure. A blowout at 65 MPH. It not only blew, it caused body damage to the camper. Since each tire was in a different position/axle on the trailer and the air levels were checked and adjusted as needed throughout the trip, the quality of Nankang products appear to be at fault.
