According to the Akron/Tire Review, NHTSA has ruled against Foreign Tire Sales, importer of china-made truck tires, saying mislabeling on the tires posed a safety issue and that the mismarked tires could not be sold in the U.S. NHTSA agreed with a Rubber Manufacturers Association filing RMA that while the intended use of the tires may not present a safety concern if used only in multiple-load applications, “there was no guarantee that the tires may not be placed in a single load application since they are capable of being mounted and used in that manner.”
