it's not china that's bad it's the specs going there that are

I would disagree. They absolutely change the specs.
My father-in-law had some equipment manufactured in China for a while (small farming implements). They changed nearly every spec (that was not immediately visible) in order to save money. For example, they used smaller wall tubing, but with the same outter diameter. I believe everyone failed.
He also had electronics manufactured there (auto deer feeders) and experienced the same switching of components to save manufacturing costs. Same result (nearly everyone failed) but with a completely different company.
Plus, with everything else going on over there... You can bet nothing safety related, ESPECIALLY something as critical as wheels, will be used by me.
