I had to buy a new tire for the Ranger pickup we use around the place. The prices were all over the place and I wanted cheap for a vehicle that never goes on the road anymore. Walmart had the best price at 60 bucks for the size I needed. 185/65R14. I didn't care what brand it was. Looking at the tire last night I was surprised to find, it was made in the U.S.A. ! Brand name, Douglas. Nice looking tire. Found out they are made by Goodyear and Walmart has the exclusive right to sell them. PJ

I think there's a 2-year or 45,000-mile on these tires, plus road damage to some extent. I didn't research that much since the tire will never go on the road, just farm use. I would have bought a used tire if one was available, but 4 tire shops didn't have any which put me in a bind. So, I took what I could get. :rolleyes2:
From what I can see with this tire, I would not be afraid to put it on an everyday vehicle. JMHO
Oh yeah, they're also rated for 130 mph.
