    I used them on a 4runner many moons ago but only put about 2k miles. I had no complaints within that time! They are also manufactured I the states and have excellent customer service if I’m remembering correctly.

    I looked at them, but I feel like they're not cheap enough. IMO it'a not worth it to save literally a few bucks.

    Stay away from retreads. Not worth the savings.

    I've ran retreads on the rear of a dump truck but would never run them on a passenger vehicle or the front of a big rig. I'd feel like a real asshole if something happened to someone because I was running retreads.

    They might have improved things these days; but years ago there were plenty of stories floating around in the Jeep world about significant issues, including full tread separations.

    Though either way, the discount doesn’t really seem significant enough to justify using a retreaded used tire over new.
