I wouldn't hesitate using them at that price, nearly every semi trailer you see is sitting on them and back in the olden days I used them on my S Series Valiant without a problem.

Inner tubes can overheat at low pressure, I'm sure all cases are checked thoroughly for damage in the manufacturing process.

Is it just me or do they have stuff all tread? The tread blocks seem a bit shallow?
