Much to Lisa's frustration (and mine), even the theoretically best brand trailer tires (Goodyear Marathons) are being made in China now. There are no remaining non-Chinese-based trailer tire manufacturers. Yes, these are US (and other) companies who own and run plants in China, but she (and others I've read) are concerned about the lack of "quality culture" in many of the Chinese plants. It's one thing when you're dealing with pieces of equipment that, when they fail, will cause you annoyance and expense. It's entirely another when dealing with tires, which, if they fail catastrophically, can kill you.
