Many Cooper tires are now made in China. Cooper has a piece of three different tire companies in China. Some Bridgestone, Goodyear, Toyo, Michelin, etc. tires are also made in China. China now has 70 modern tire factories, of which 40 are owned and operated by "foreign" tire companies such as Yokohoma or Han Kook. That's a lot of tires that used to be made in Japan or the U.S. or Korea or Taiwan now being made in China... |

Damn, now I remember that name!
Those tires should be made illegal because they cannot take any water at all!
