Being made in Asia doesn't magically make them an inferior tire. Your luck may relate to the same quality control issue that has plagued Krylions all along.
BTW, I'm talking out of my ass since I haven't yet tried the new Krylions. I'm still working my way through a surplus of Krylions that I bought a few years ago.
