I'm looking too,those along with the Cooper S/TMAXX,or S/T are on my list.
The Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac is also a good tire American made tire.
Sams club has the dura tracs for 1,177.58 otd with lifetime road hazard.Big O $1200,Walmart$1200
I believe the duratracs also have a rebate going on now.
Big o guy says he will sell the Cooper A/T3 for 900 otd. I need to verify if that included Road hazard. A/T3 also has 55000 warranty,not sure about the others.
A friend of mine has the Cooper S/T MAXX and he likes them allot.

Lots of companies manufacture there tires here.
Cooper and Goodyear are American companies.
I'm sure there are more.
Those were the tires I was looking at buying,and wanted to share the fact that they are also made here,by American companies.
Thanks for pointing that out though-I really appreciate it.

Not sure what options you have for dealers... in Canada I stick with Kal Tire. They're all over the place, free tire rotations and tire repair, and if you don't like the tires you got from them they'll do a prorated (based on mileage) swap for something else.
Unfortunately I've got no experience with the General Grabbers to compare to BFG.
One feature of BFG related to noise that I did not mention and is easy to miss if not looking closely: they vary the size of tread blocks which breaks of the noise pattern for less tire noise from a blocky thread. Other makes may do this do; BFG is just the one I'm familiar with.
