Toyo Open County dry rot, cracking

I also switched to LT tires on my TT. It was nice doing 72-73 over the weekend and not thinking twice about it.

I have pretty much given up on buying anything that's foreign made. Take a look into the state of this nations steel industry and you'll understand part of my reasoning. Think twice about your purchases and where they come from. Ra Ra Ra...Merica

Anyhow, here is a picture of my well worn American made tires from 2009. Some dryrot yes but no big cracks.

Looks like a Firestone Transforce AT tread pattern.

Part of the reason I bought Toyo is they were advertised as made in USA, I dint do good enough research I guess, tires do say made in USA but apparently by Japanese company. It was a bit weird that USA company would pic a oriental name but now I see why, it's not a USA company. But I got to say that Japanese are hard working people and would expect a good product from them. Times shure changed in past 20 years. Edited October 1, 2015 by Dieselfuture

Toyo bought Nitto some years ago they could have been produced in that factory.
