Import Tips
• Verify tire size and tread pattern match agricultural specs via DOT markings to avoid reclassification to passenger tire codes
• Provide manufacturer specs confirming use on tractors or harvesters; include end-user declarations for customs
• Watch for anti-dumping duties on Chinese-origin ag tires; ensure proper country-of-origin labeling
