Are Firestone tires made in China?

Firestone tires are primarily not made in China, they are mainly made in USA and other countries, though some Firestone tires or components may be made in China as part of global manufacturing. Firestone, owned by Bridgestone Americas, manufactures most Firestone tires sold in North America in American plants including Wilson, North Carolina, Des Moines, Iowa, and other US factories, plus plants in Canada, Mexico, and other countries, with strict quality control. Bridgestone has global factories, and some Firestone or Bridgestone tires for Asian markets may be made in China, Japan, Thailand, or other Asian plants. For North American market, Firestone tires sold at Firestone Complete Auto Care and tire retailers are mostly made in USA, with DOT codes showing US manufacturing. Unlike some budget tire brands that are entirely made in China, Firestone maintains US production for quality reputation. However, like many global tire companies, Bridgestone does have manufacturing facilities in China for local market, and some Firestone branded tires sold in Asia may be made there, but tires sold in USA, Canada, and Europe are generally not made in China. If you check sidewall DOT code, you can see plant code indicating country of manufacture. So Firestone tires sold in North America are mostly made in USA, not China, though company has global production including China for some markets, but US market Firestones are American-made.
