This seemed like a simple question (pun intended) when it was asked. I'm wondering if THAT question was sufficiently answered. Most of the replies I see are now arguments about where they are made instead of who sells them. My only thought is, let the buyer decide what country he wants to buy from. I prefer U.S. made myself, but sometimes I am limited to what is available. All I see here now are people trying to justify their preference.
 
I just had my former tire business heavy equipment servicing neighbor order me tires. They work just fine. And he mounted them!
Next time I'll probably hit a tire store near where I used to live that does farm service.
I did talk to them about bringing a tractor to them.

No idea of quality from China.
S. Korea builds plenty of tractors. Have not heard or read of tire issues on them.
About any new tire with tread would beat my worst rear tire that needs replacing....I'm about ready to wrap duct tape around it to try for more traction...L.o.l.
 
I did not want to buy tires also, but my big kubota rear loaded tire receive a nail about 12 years ago and the shop just plug it as there was no tubes in it. 2 years ago it starting leaking past the plug and I ran anyway as it was not to bad. it holds 61 gallons of fluid in each tire and I was holding off from having a tire shop come out for the repair. [$650.00 - $800.00 for the trip] so for 2 years I was adding air every now and then, so I bit the bullet. new tires , tubes and new rims , ouch. I do not want to do this for another 22 years, that is what I got out of my titans. I also went from 8 ply to a 12 ply tire.
 
I here from farmers by me that the china brands have a strange smell to the rubber, and do not hold up as long as they start to crack. a lot of tires are made in turkey a very big tire plant with good quality. I all ways try to buy usa but I guess with the covid going on titan can not supply tires in my size until early spring I was told by my dealer . now with the covid who knows by then what happens may get them and may not. so I ended up buying galaxy easy rider tires. they used to have a place or office in the usa years ago but now I see they moves to canada and there tires are made in turkey.
