I am having problems with chipped tyres. Actually, it is an understatement. I actually have tyres that break off in chunks. My vendor keeps blaming our tractor drivers driving over sharp uneven surfaces. While I do not dispute that fact, I still wonder if the tyre quality has anything to do with it.

Our forklifts are used mainly in the warehouse. Ocassionally, they are driven out onto the tarmac.

Any advice on what to do? I am told to try Aichi, Japan. Is it much better for my kind of environment i.e. tropical climate, warehouse and uneven roadways.
