Vittoria Tyres excl serial numbers

[Jakkals.]

Hi, just went onto Vittoria tyre's website and found this.

 

Be aware of thugs selling these fakes.

Now I am having to check to see the possible abrasion on my Barzo and Saguaro. But ja, this is not cool. I am going to refrain from mentioning where I bought mine, as some say that taking them on here on this forum is akin to social media suicide...

I hope nobody wipes out from a tyre failure caused by this! Definitely not cool, so let's hope the perpetrators get what's coming to them.....

if a serial number was removed, does it make it a fake? Serial numbers are usually found on the original right?

I suppose it's not fake, BUT it can be from a batch that was scrapped due to some quality control issue and now being sold through the back door!

 

Lets just say its illegal.

Could be a faulty batch that didn't get destroyed or from a stolen shipment

I am trying to figure out how the word `manumission` applies in this context. This is the definition: 'Manumission, from manumit /ˌmænjəˈmɪt/, is the act of a slave owner freeing his or her slaves. Different approaches developed, each specific to the time and place of a society's slave system. The motivations of slave owners in manumitting slaves were complex and varied.'

i suspect they used google translate from Italian to English & we all know how wrong that can go with direct translation & incorrect context of some words.

i think that is exactly what happened hence it was brought to Vittoria's attention & specific mention to South Africa.
