Even those cool big letter goodyears just came home from Chile. I remember when all the Japanese made was little trinkets and cheap toys, really bad ones to. If that isn't enough to make us think twice how about estimate that I heard the other day that at the current pace the Chinese economy will replace the US economy as the largest. I forget how long, something like ten years. Shame to drag this in here.

FYI,
Most US Michelins (I know a French company) are made in SC and other SE plants. Michelin also owns Uniroyal and they are made in the US.
Firestone is owned by Bridgestone, which is a Japanese company.
