Who Make The Tire

Hi,

I was search NHTSA for recall and stuff like that. I came to a surprise that Yokohama, among many other brands, was actually made by Continental.

So, does it matter who make it?

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a misprint in that article. Yokohama and Continental are two seperate brands. I have not yet heard of any mergers. Although I did hear of Yokohama and Hoosier merging together...they released a new line of 'Hoosyourmama tires!'

I wouldn't be surprised at all to know this. What looms behind something large is always larger.
