I ordered the same size but went with Hankook. The treadwear and milege ratings were better than Cooper. QUOTE]

I looked at the Hankook, and your right. BUT ..... they are made in China, or Japan ..... someplace other then the USA. I try to keep my American dollars in America. Tough sometimes.
Besides ...... "Chrysler and Hankook" just dosen't sound right together. Being somewhat of a purist ..... The Coopers just look right.

Yeah, I looked at Hankook as well due to the extra load rating compared to the Coopers, but I couldn't get past the sidewall - it was just too weird or modern looking to mesh with the looks of a C body in my eyes at least. One other option to the Cooper Trendsetters is the Pep Boys brand, Cornell. It looks just like the Cooper on the sidewall. It also is a standard load rating though. Both the Cooper and Cornell tires are about $20 less per tire than the Hankook. I believe the Cooper tires are now made in India, but I could be wrong.

Most Cooper tires are made in the US with some made in Mexico.

Looks like they also have some tires made in Serbia and China, plus England, Mexico and the U.S. as shown in this manufacturing webpage:

I took a look and molded into the sidewall is "made in USA". 3/1/14 manufacture date.
