Import Tips
• Label with 'RETREAD' marking per regulations and include speed rating (e.g
• L) to confirm on-highway suitability
• Document origin of casings to avoid anti-dumping scrutiny on used tire imports
• Avoid classifying oversized tires as 'light truck'; check GVWR limits to prevent reclassification
