Hi Kevin
What is basing his DOT spiel on? I just went out to the garage and looked
at 5 vehicles and trailers with ND mil tires. Coopers, Good Years,
Armstrong, Denman and they all had the DOT molded into the sidewalls. If
your tires have that on them then it is cut and dried. Why is he even
looking at the tires anyway on a private non commercial trailer.
