I make it a point to only use tires made in the US on my tractor.
Same thing with company trailers, I only get US made tires.

I prefer round ones. However, if you drive alot in Indiana square ones will give you a smoother ride.

That one truck we turned in numbers that were very good in terms of wear and tear. It still had it's original brake pads and so on after we turned it in at 210000 miles back to FFE. Engine accumulated close to 8500 hours by then munching on a alternator about two or three times a year requiring a replacement. -
Made in the U.S.A. is my only choice.
Also the price of Made in China tires has risen in the last few years to almost the same price as mid-tiered U.S.A. tires so it’s a no brainer to purchase U.S.A. tires.Heavyd Thanks this.
