    Pretty sure mine say Brazil but I'll check tomorrow.
    Great tyres, absolutely solid handling in the dry and certainly given me no trouble in the wet. As good as anything I've ever used.

    When did you last have a set?
    I know the old ones in the 70's and 80's were pretty ordinary in the wet, but these are good.
    I have them on both vans and can't fault them.

    I have 2 cars with B.F.G. tyres on them,... a set of silvertown whitewalls have made in Mexico on them, and a set of T/A's have made in Mexico on fronts & made in U.S.A. on rears.

    B T W, they are fairly ordinary in the wet in my opinion, but in their defence, they are on fibreglass bodied rods with small block chev engines so power to weight may be a factor. & they were bought because variety of available sizes at the time

    I do like Yokahamas in the wet.

    cheers

    I have Mastercraft Avengers on the rear of my van and I find them pretty good.
    Again, not sure of the size of your rims.
