Is it true that NASCAR tires, F1 Indy tires, and Triumph vintage tires are all made in the same place and then different brand names applied? uncle jack

Being from the Akron area, I seem to recall hearing that the only tires still made in Akron are the Goodyear Racing Tires. So NASCAR would be true for Akron and GY. F1 Indy tires??? Are they Bridges

I didn't get the joke, too subtle for my right side = left side brain. Great explanation on your part, especially the Al Queda tie in. Maybe that explains the police cars slowly going up and down my
