Buy American Made ! If You Can ?




Buy American Made ! It is Difficult !



Hi Don,

I need new tires for my van.
Tell me which companies make their tires in the USA ?

Enclosed is part of a web site form "how to buy American" it indicates that Goodyear are made in the USA.






I don't care that Goodyear is American owned , I want an American Co. that manufactures in the USA.

Have a good one,
Steve

Tires :

Over 90% of the tires Cooper sells to our market are American made. Most Goodyear tires are made in America as well. As I was waiting to have new set of American-made Cooper tires put on my Lincoln Town Car at my local tire store, I looked through at all the Goodyear tires they had in stock and the foreign-made ones were not easy to find. You can buy foreign-owned brands like Michelin that are made in the USA, but why buy an American-made tire from a foreign company when you can buy an American-made tire from an American company?
