I think alot of yous guys are missing the point, aren't u supposed to name where the tires are made as well? Like just for kicks it's no fun if u just state the brand

I don't know where my runflats were made, but I know where they'll end up after I get my Contis - in a back of a shitty little shop in Brooklyn! which is where they belong to begin with (as opposed to on a $60k BMW)

Views expressed above are not those necessarily shared by everyone, so don't fvck around

Nankangs made in China...(bought with the vehicle). I was initially sceptical but I can honestly say just as good as Continentals but a better wear rate. I will replace them with the same brand and save a bundle too.

+1.

Nankang NS-II (Made in Taiwan or China) - second set.
The first set served me well and then found 95% thread take off from E550 owner for CHEAP.
