I wonder why Shinko puts a foil sticker inside their tires? Seems like it's asking for trouble.

Ok...where's Spud been hiding? He'd have a good answer for this, I'm sure.

They Booby trap so they can ask, "why didn't you have them professionally installed".

Thanks for posting the warning.

I don't know why Shinko would put a foil sticker inside the tire.

However, it's vital to inspect the inside of the tire before you mount it, and your post is a good reminder to always perform this inspection.

Thanks for the warning!

I sell tires daily to folks at work. Shinko's QC is not always the best, hence the fantastic price point. However, I agree with Spudd, always inspect your tires or really anything you purchase. You honestly never know if it was the item produced on a friday afternoon at 5pm whenever one else had gone home!
