Their web says many of their tires are US made but, not all tires and they do not list which tire is US and which is not.

Thanks Ken.

If you're going to replace your tires, you might want to consider the LR E (10 ply). They are only a couple of dollars more and have significantly more load capability. As for where the Carlisle Radial Trail HD, as far as I can tell, they are made in China. A "couple of provinces" away from where TowMax is made. The difference: Carlisle owns their factory, TowMax is a "contracted by an outside manufacturer" which, to me, means significantly lower quality control.
