> when you allow ALL your manufacturing to go overseas
It is all about what was written into the "Stimulus" bill, who wrote it, it's intent,

and that is about all I can say without discussing it outside Club FTE because doing so would violate guidelines for this forum.
It has nothing to do with overseas manufacturing , REALLY.
Though it is true it will cost $30-80 more per tire, guess it is a good thing I have been buying rims and tires early including some just to have for the next two years or so
