Kumho makes tires in China, it's true. They also make tires in their home country South Korea, and they are building a new plant in Macon GA.
My mechanic swears by them, although he is also very fond of Toyo for winter tires. He says I won't even need extra weight in the bed of the Bluesmobile if I go for a set of four Toyos.
