Firestone is now a division of Bridgestone, which is Japanese - just FYI.

Me, I’ve been underwhelmed by most of Goodyear’s tire offerings for years, so I’ve not been buying them anyway.

That's been our experience. Sadly, Goodyear ended up on most of our new vehicle purchases over the years. We always went with more other manufacturer when it was time to get new tires. We're currently dealing with a 5 year-old set on a SUV we purchased new, with only 29,000 miles on them.

Despite that and the fact that Goodyear's service department says they still have plenty of tread remaining, I find myself spinning tires from a stop on a green light or fishtailing around a corner. They will be replaced early this Fall before the weather gets worse.
