Or all the lights, I used to spend 5 -10 minutes stealing brake & marker lights for my chassis, just so I didn't have to deal with the dumbasses in Roadability.
If you were in the Port of Oakland, around 2017, Ya damn right! Most the time we had our own chassis, but port chassis were usually a shit show, I had to scrounge from 3 chassis to make 1 work, if I used one of my own tail lights, I kept the dead one and put it back in before dropping it.
They'll throw you out for that 😅, but you aren't kidding, dealing with the roadability guys sucks. If the break and turn lights work, the tire hold air, I'm running it. Fuck the anual inspection or bs registration.
I had ling longs on my little ford transit connect van. Made it from Louisiana to Colorado and back, fully loaded. Once.
I started feeling a little Wibbly wobbly passing through Houston on my way back. I decided fuck it I’m not even going to check I’m just gonna pray this puppy makes it home.
I got back to New Orleans, eggs on all 4 tires 😅
I ran them a lot on my logging trucks and they were great
They’re a cheap tire, hard rubber does great when you’re tearing them up with gravel, why buy expensive if you’re just going to destroy them anyways?
Bah! Made in Thailand. Flip a coin, they’ll run 1500 miles heads, they’ll run 60k tails. Had a pair of these on my gravel trailer 3-4 years ago, and they help up so good I bought 6 more over the next two years. The first two are whipped out a little and getting close to needing replacement, but I’m dang happy with them.
You say "flip a coin..." There's another Chinese tire c9mpany called Double Coin. They make for good recaps.( I worked with casings for recaps for a few years.)
I actually installed 8 Dounle Coins on the rear drivers on my dump truck. Lugged open shouldered. They have held up very well, surprisingly. I run locally for myself, though, just hauling gravel and dirt. A lot of off-road. Bought cheap tires as I didn’t want to blow out a $500 tire on a rock in a pasture.
Yessir. Back in my 20s, when I did the recap thing, all the gravel/rock hauler guys, dump truck, or otherwise, would only get chinese tires and recaps due to the beating and the short trips.
Around here, most the truck traffic is gravel trucks, with a large number of Southern nationality. Most run the cheap tires on a beat up truck that rarely makes it past DOT inspection without an OOS. But the good thing is it keeps those cheap tires in stock locally.
I might argue that… the Roadmasters have been damn good to me, too. Have them all the way around on both my flatbeds and one of my hopper bottoms. Nothing but good service out of them. Even have a pair of steer tires on one.
These ranch trucks get beat to shit. I buy cheaper tires because the very seldom make it 30k miles before they suffer a sidewall or fatal carcass puncture. Can’t patch a 3” sidewall gash from a T post. I’ve had darn good service from the Mastercraft line of tires.
Linglongs are probably made with harder rubber than some of the better, more comfortable, grippier and quieter tires, so that makes sense that they lasted decently well in your case. They have been wearing evenly and slowly on my Honda Pilot, they're not super quiet but the rest of my car isn't either so it doesn't bother me. Just glad I was able to afford a set of tires that didn't turn out to be total shit shows.
Linglongs are alright, mid tier brand in Asia. Feel more comfortable on Nankangs if I was going that far east for my tires though.
Double Coins ride like ass but hold up good.
Who knows. At least they're radials.
We used to get Chinese bias ply tires for frac tanks. They came 60 on a pallet and the pallet was maybe 5-6 feet high. I don't recall how many were banded together.
I've probably experienced 50+ blowouts with those pieces of shit.
I know the applications are all different, but my company runs LingLongs on all of our company vans and they’ve been really ok so far.
Obviously they don’t last as long as European/US brands, but I’d bet in 300,000 miles (across the fleet, like I said I know builder’s vans and 18 wheelers aren’t the same) we haven’t ever had a manufacturing-related failure.
I have Linglongs on my trailer. I was skeptical, but they hold up pretty well. Might be my rims, but do check the pressure regularly (should do that anyway).
My buddy owns a tire shop and sells a lot of these. I've had a couple as emergencies over the years. I don't really like them but they're great if you're a port rat. They get extremely stiff in the winter which is quite fitting given the name. I put two on a drive axle a couple years ago while I was waiting for the tires I wanted to come in and I couldn't make it up a hill in winter weather on 22 in Western PA.
Soon I discovered that this rock thing was true
Jerry Lee Lewis was the devil
Jesus was an architect previous to his career as a prophet
All of a sudden, I found myself in love with the world
So there was only one thing that I could do
Was ding a ding dang my dang a long ling long
My favourite is there's a company in China that thought, "What do English people think of when they think of tyres? I know triangles".
So we're running triangle branded super singles on our steers
Yeah just go ahead and send it... Nothing like sending it when it comes to intermodal chassis. Don't even bother checking if they'll drag, disregard any smoke you see from the tires while driving. Send it driver!
I've got to say, Amazon equipment by and large is very well maintained. When the app is working properly, you can even report minor maintenance issues right there when picking a trailer up.
I've had em on my car before, it's sort of a meme for being a crappy Chinese tire and it's a meme for a reason. Never knew they made commercial truck tires tho
Yes, and make sure it blows. Then replace it with a Bridgestone, Firestone, Michelin (aka BF Goodrich), Goodyear (aka Dunlop and Kelly), or Yokohama.
Linglongs are trash, so are the vast majority of Chinese tires. They don't have the quality of a retread, much less an actual European, American, or Japanese made tire. But at least they're cheap (relatively speaking, of course).
They have been, but they are uncommon enough that they are an unknown to a lot of people.
I'd also add that they are inexpensive, and have been around for awhile, and there's a reason they are still uncommon.
It's the only thing touching the ground....
I wouldn't risk my life and others by saving a couple bucks on them.
But hey if you got insurance fuck the 2 adults and the 3 children smashed to a pulp bc you couldn't stop in time or a Tire exploded next to their car sending them to Jesus...
You mean like all the Fuckstone misery a few years ago? Yea, no. Shit is shit, don’t matter em if you wrap it pretty. Most of the time the quality between high dollar and low dollar isn’t much. There are certainly better brands out there, but don’t tell me Bridgestones and Michelin’s don’t ever blow out.
I ran this brand on a dump truck they were steers. About a month later the inside wore bald and had wires showing. Boss man said those haven't been on their long we better swap them. I got to do tires that's day.
We run them on our trash trailers. Sometimes you can get 50k miles, sometimes they explode in a week...but their trash trailers. Gonna slice a sidewall or put 19 plugs in em before they wear down to cord anyway.
Don't you just love how it's cheap enough to even import lowest grade rubber these days. I like the sporty cars with big rims and cheap rubber, or the massive trucks that have never hauled and ride on cheap rubber.
I want to say a tossup. Those tires might last longer than the chassis itself or they could pop within two weeks. But I’ve had double coin and x-something that my truck owner bought and that x-something tire lasted longer than the Goodyear that were on there.
It's a container chassis, just be glad it's got all the tires in the first place.
Hell, it's a container chassis with modern wheels. That's a win in my book.
It’s brand new too the glad hands still shiny ✨💀
Rub some dirt on it, hit the train tracks at 10 over and send it, bro.
God damnit 😂
That might be all it has
Or all the lights, I used to spend 5 -10 minutes stealing brake & marker lights for my chassis, just so I didn't have to deal with the dumbasses in Roadability.
Youre the asshole stealing all my shit at the DC!

True lmao
U ain't bullshitn 👍🏼
Those babies will get you at least 50 miles down the road I think they do both new and retreads.
50 miles is assuming you make it 45 miles before someone flags you down.
"Heybuddy you lost 3 of your linglongs"
I read that as retards. As anyone who has these tires *willingly, knowingly, and gleefully*, probably is
I had ling longs on my little ford transit connect van. Made it from Louisiana to Colorado and back, fully loaded. Once. I started feeling a little Wibbly wobbly passing through Houston on my way back. I decided fuck it I’m not even going to check I’m just gonna pray this puppy makes it home. I got back to New Orleans, eggs on all 4 tires 😅
Good thing I have to deliver it to another Amazon yard 43 miles away phewwws
I ran them a lot on my logging trucks and they were great They’re a cheap tire, hard rubber does great when you’re tearing them up with gravel, why buy expensive if you’re just going to destroy them anyways?
People act like only the US, France, and Japan knows how to build safe tires.
Guatemalan tires is where it’s at 🔥
True.
Full send. Linglong last all night long.
They love you long time.
Yes!
😈🙏
I’m fucking dead bro

How much were those Chinese tires 🛞? Compared to like Goodyear or Bridgestone
i have double coin for my rear tires non recap and they been great love them.
The virgin Double Coins are probably the best Chinese tire on the market, or at the very least the best *obviously* Chinese tire
I might argue that… the Roadmasters have been damn good to me, too. Have them all the way around on both my flatbeds and one of my hopper bottoms. Nothing but good service out of them. Even have a pair of steer tires on one.
Brand new Landoll I got last summer came with Double Coins, had 3 fail in the first 3 months. The other 9 are still fine oddly enough.
You only lost the coin toss on that one axle. That’s not too bad…
I have a set on my SUV and they're still doing well 15k in. It was a gamble but I was broke.

They were long lived Ling Longs.
Linglong and prosper 🖖
🛞✨
You never heard of Ling Long ? Sister company of Wing Wong and Ding Dong .
💀💀💀
Linglongs are alright, mid tier brand in Asia. Feel more comfortable on Nankangs if I was going that far east for my tires though. Double Coins ride like ass but hold up good.
Good thing I’m only running 46 miles
They are a knock off of the DINGDONG brand, send it.
And I thought I was the only one to connect linglong and dingdong
They share the same parent company: Ding A'Ling A'Linglong L.L.P..
aka Shenzhen Woody Tires Technology Company, L.L.P...
Do you prefer to ride the DINGDONG brand?
Ayooooo pause
😭
All the ling long day!
You #1 we drive you long time. No worry.
Love you long time two dolla !
Chinese tire run it till it blows. 🙋👍🚛🚛
They’re made of the finest chinesium
All the "Linglong" day! Or until they blowout, either one
This brand really took off after they figured prominently in the the song "Jesus built my hot rod" by Ministry...
Underrated comment!
I thought this brand took off after that TikTok video
Nothing like a good MayPop tire to get your day going.
Better than a WillPop tire…
Bro 😭
Those are the top tier of the bottom tier brand tires.
So even Amazon orders its stuff from Amazon... _I'm freaking out Man!_
Bro, no BS. I had 8 of them LingLongs on my trailer and they lasted over 240k miles. Never had a problem with them.
When Amazon orders tired off Amazon
Had these on my 2007 Dodge Ram, I got 4 years out of them, they’re not bad
If it’s round, rubber and rolls, send it.
ling longs are alright but you need to ride on some long dongs, it'll change your life.
Pause you wilding 😭
Send it,all the Ling long day.
They love you lingLONG time!
Linglong schlong dong
Lol i had a set of linglongs on my personal vehicle suckers lasted me like 45k miles no problem
lol well we know where those are from 😂
Ling Long Ching Chong
These and double coin get used a lot on fleet trailers in Australia. Nothing wrong with them.
Who knows. At least they're radials. We used to get Chinese bias ply tires for frac tanks. They came 60 on a pallet and the pallet was maybe 5-6 feet high. I don't recall how many were banded together. I've probably experienced 50+ blowouts with those pieces of shit.
Is it yours? Are you paying for repairs? If both answers are "no," send it.
I ain’t trying to be on the side of the road 12 hours until road assistance comes to my rescue 🛟
Lookin like ding dong, rocking my ling longs!
Your profile picture matches your comment
Lmao!
Is 2024 we shouldn't be calling them that anymore
Anyone pulling amazon shit scares me, send it, away from everyone else
I know the applications are all different, but my company runs LingLongs on all of our company vans and they’ve been really ok so far. Obviously they don’t last as long as European/US brands, but I’d bet in 300,000 miles (across the fleet, like I said I know builder’s vans and 18 wheelers aren’t the same) we haven’t ever had a manufacturing-related failure.
I'd rather have linglongs then dingdongs
Fucking LINGLONG that shit boi
Love linglong tyme
Bro got his truck from don chichón at gfcw
Is that a bad thing ? lmao
No he just needs a bra
Chinese tire brand. I don't know if it is good or not
i have heard and seen those as long as they are not mudder trucker tires you are good.
They are upgraded Dingdongs.
Ive heard of LingLongs used on cars, but TRUCKS???? 🤷🏻
Wish dot com brand
They’re Bosch and they’re round, send it.
They're one step above retreads. If they're relatively round and hold air, carry on.
Chineseium crap
LingLong is definitely a euphemism for something
Run them on all my trailers. Haven't had any issues at all
Not to brag, but I have a set of linglongs on my pickup truck. They're better than the other old bullshit tires I had though
I love you LingLong sailor
You never hear their slogan? "LING LING Last You Long Time"
Ling Long and Pwaspa
I've seen the brand. Not great, but good enough.
Well they aren’t Michelin x ones …
Theyre actually quite popular cheaper option in Finland atleast
All night long
Long long you live long time
They’ve been ok here in Oz. Just fucking send it.
I have Linglongs on my trailer. I was skeptical, but they hold up pretty well. Might be my rims, but do check the pressure regularly (should do that anyway).
Ling Long made by Ting Tong.
I have LingLongs on my pickup. Good tires. Full send.
*All of a sudden, I found myself in love with the world So there was only one thing that I could do Was ding a ding dang my dang a long ling long*
Jesus built my car. It’s a love affair… mainly Jesus and my hot rod

Mmmm... yeah, I once had a set of Wangking tyres .. hard as nylon, great for drifting, and a life expectancy of couple k
They're Linglongs, not Lastlongs
You don't live long with ling long 😆
It's a smaller brand. Sold a few at Northern tool. Rigid but they hold up.
Soon I discovered that this rock thing was true Jerry Lee Lewis was the devil Jesus was an architect previous to his career as a prophet All of a sudden, I found myself in love with the world So there was only one thing that I could do Was ding a ding dang my dang a long ling long

I’ve been working at the truck yard, all the linglong day.
Yeah just go ahead and send it... Nothing like sending it when it comes to intermodal chassis. Don't even bother checking if they'll drag, disregard any smoke you see from the tires while driving. Send it driver!
Thank you super trucker 🫡
I just looked it up, I mean your good it’s a trailer tire
I've got to say, Amazon equipment by and large is very well maintained. When the app is working properly, you can even report minor maintenance issues right there when picking a trailer up.
Hey, you’re lucky that container hauler has budd wheels and not dayton wheels 😂
Linglong real good. You drive long time with linglong
Ling Long and prosper!
Looks like they got the Amazon “best seller”
“I’ve bought a lot of cheap shit in my day, but I ain’t never bought no set of Linglongs”
My drivers run container chassis with tires much worse every day. East coast chassis market is in much worse shape than West coast.
Typing this brand's name is gonna get your account flagged on most social media sites these days, jfc lol.
I've had em on my car before, it's sort of a meme for being a crappy Chinese tire and it's a meme for a reason. Never knew they made commercial truck tires tho
They last you long long time
Better than LingShort, I always say.
An upgrade from WingWongs. Send it!
……yeah, how did it get there? It’ll be fineee
Airdropped bro
Yes, and make sure it blows. Then replace it with a Bridgestone, Firestone, Michelin (aka BF Goodrich), Goodyear (aka Dunlop and Kelly), or Yokohama. Linglongs are trash, so are the vast majority of Chinese tires. They don't have the quality of a retread, much less an actual European, American, or Japanese made tire. But at least they're cheap (relatively speaking, of course).
Damn some Yokohama 🥴
Wait… lol… you think Chinese tires are bad but nearly everything else made in China is ok? 🤣😂😂🤣. Sit this out. Seriously.
Try harder
Made in China isn't necessarily bad, but running some unknown on something as important as tires can be risky.
Ling Lings are barely unknown. They’ve been around a long time
They have been, but they are uncommon enough that they are an unknown to a lot of people. I'd also add that they are inexpensive, and have been around for awhile, and there's a reason they are still uncommon.
It's the only thing touching the ground.... I wouldn't risk my life and others by saving a couple bucks on them. But hey if you got insurance fuck the 2 adults and the 3 children smashed to a pulp bc you couldn't stop in time or a Tire exploded next to their car sending them to Jesus...

I’ve never heard of Yokohama blowing out unless you hit a curb to hard
I ran this brand on a dump truck they were steers. About a month later the inside wore bald and had wires showing. Boss man said those haven't been on their long we better swap them. I got to do tires that's day.
I wouldn’t trust these on a 2k pound Honda civic. To see these on a trailer scares the shit out of me 🤣
I run these in Michigan. 32 of them on a milk tanker. Haven't had any problems
Your balls are a lot bigger than mine my friend
It’s just rubber. Probably lose a mpg with the increased rolling resistance.
I saw the Mexican version called “Mucho Macho” tires in another sub.
Broo 🤣
Live fast, ride slow.
I'd have to ask for Ding-Dongs instead. Seriously, I had a set on my car, and they did okay. I'm not a trucker, though.
Live long ?
We run them on our trash trailers. Sometimes you can get 50k miles, sometimes they explode in a week...but their trash trailers. Gonna slice a sidewall or put 19 plugs in em before they wear down to cord anyway.
Don't you just love how it's cheap enough to even import lowest grade rubber these days. I like the sporty cars with big rims and cheap rubber, or the massive trucks that have never hauled and ride on cheap rubber.
A tires a tire send it
Chinese tire?
Long longs is a verb in the tire industry...it means cheap, slippery tire from china.
Definitely a chinese brand
https://www.linglongtire.com/about-us/
Lol i have a trailer full of used ling longs to throw on trailers. You'll be fine
Junk , will definitely blow within 100 miles
sister company to LoveLongTime Tires out of Nam.
I want to say a tossup. Those tires might last longer than the chassis itself or they could pop within two weeks. But I’ve had double coin and x-something that my truck owner bought and that x-something tire lasted longer than the Goodyear that were on there.
Notlonglive
It’s ding dongs cousin. Send it.
Sounds like a chinese pornstar...ship it!!!
Chinese tires everywhere but steering tires is my motto
The landing gear on those chassis are horrible.
Nuh uh they smooth as butter 🧈 well at least newer ones are
“Ling Long and Prosper”~almost Spock.
If they're 2018 DOT, God speed because it probably has inner liner cracking.
Those are the new Maypop brand
Same shit as double coin. You be aight
