Does anyone know who manufacturers this tire or has any information on it's quality. They are sold by America's Tire Co.IP: Logged |

I would ask the salesman at Americas Tire Store who makes this tire. He should tell you. If he doesn't, then I wouldn't deal with them anyway. Some people are kinda hesitant to ask this question. Don't be. They have no reason to keep it from you, unless of course they are made by Firestone. Ha! Ha! IP: Logged |

Well Craig, tried this with the three area stores and got three different answers. Seems that their help has very limited knowledge. Also tried an e-mail to the company and no reply yet. At least if I could find out who makes them, I might be able to find another outlet for them. I have noticed that a lot of the tire stores are reluctant to help you when you start asking technical questions about their products, they just want to sell you what they think you want. Makes comparative shopping kind of tough.IP: Logged |

Sorry that didn't help much. The way I see it is this. If the tires were made by a reputable company they would be proud to tell you. Either the tires are made by an inferior company or their salemen are uninformed. Either way would make me leary of these people. Good luck.IP: Logged |

I have a F350 Ford truck and just had a Pathfinder tread come off with only about 20K miles on the tire. Never lost air, but tore up the truck and tore the muffler off. The tire was replaced by Discount Tire and I will be hearing from Kelly-Springfield for damages to the truck. That is who Discount told me who makes the tires.IP: Logged |
