Hello Heinz,
the Vredestein brand was sold to the Apollo tire company based in India. The (my) tires also have the marking "Made in India" on the sidewall. My DOT is also at the end of 2023.
I only noticed it when my tires arrived and then I contacted the dealer to ask if it was a non-EU import.
And yes, I would also like to confirm that the production standard does not matter at all when using the same machines and components.
For me, too, it is only the interest in whether there are possibly two (or more) production sites... in the end, it is the product that counts. And here I have had good experiences with the T-Trac so far.
Best regards.
Thomas
Selling a “brand” is very different to selling a factory or its equipment.
Cadbury’s chocolate is now owned by Americans, is no longer made in Bristol and has different ingredients, tastes worse…but it still says “Cadburys” on the wrapper!
