japanese tires
Just had the Susuki Jeepny delivered. I have heard that the Japanese tires are now ok and do not need to be changed. Has anybody heard anything about this???

Re: japanese tires
Evens they're now "allowed" they should probably be changes due to warping and cracking.

Re: japanese tires
Your tires need a load rating or a DOT stamp on the sidewall or they are a no-go, is the last I heard. Since those tires are from Japan, there won't be a DOT stamp, but make sure there is a load rating written on the sidewall.

Re: japanese tires
My Van came with DOT tires from Japan, it isn't a definite that the tires are not allowed on our road. I would look before you toss them out.
