Import Tips
• Include load range and speed rating specs in entry docs to confirm light truck use and radial construction
• Avoid common pitfall of undervaluing based on retread status; base valuation on full market value
• Ensure no textile fabric dominates to prevent exclusion under chapter note (a) for textiles
