Wonder how long they’ve been using these stickers in regards to the political climate.

“made for america” instead of,”made in america”, so still made in China?

I’m sure the Chinese workers that produced those tires did indeed do so with patriotic pride . Just not toward the U.S. I loathe companies that wrap themselves in the flag to make a buck and I doubly loathe this shit.

Best part: there is a significant consumer demographic who will eat this up.

They're not the only ones who engaged in this sort of trickery. Now this doesn't explicitly say anywhere on here that it is US made, but note that hisense is owned by the chinese government. Guaranteed, when they used these boxes, soelme patriots out there definitely gave their money to communists to buy this TV. Lol.

That’s why I only buy my tires from real American patriots like Toyo.

That sort of shit happens in Oz too.

“Designed in Australia for Australians and Australian conditions”.

Basically, it just means we are too cheap to pay the margins they want from a product that was made here. And they are too addicted to those  margins.

Tbh I dont care where my tires are manufactured, my preferred option was the Nankang ns2-r but it was out of budget

When I purchased them I figured they’d be made in Japan. The “Made in USA” molding does look nice on Jeep tires, though.

I’d prefer things like tires at least be made in a place known for high manufacturing standards and less global shipping is always a plus.

This is like GM constantly advertising how “committed” Holden is to Australia.

they should have a sticker for each country they export to, just to be fair.
