Thought I saw or read somewhere that Maxxis tires are made in China. Not saying that's good or bad, just that some people have a definite opinion about chinese made products.
Our HR came with brand new (we checked the date code) and we have about 12 thousand miles on them and there is no cracking, DH is impressed with them and when we replace them we'll still go with Maxxis.
If you did a google search you'd be amazed how many tire manuf. have their plants in China and that general area.
My 05 Jayco Eagle came with Maxxis tires. Towed it from California to South Dakota to Colorado back to Calif. No problems with tires.
Then my 07 Jayco Eagle came with Goodyear Marathon tires (Can you spell Junk).
When the TT comes out of the repair shop, tread delaminating tire caused $6,000.00 damage to underside, I am mounting Maxxis on the unit.
