The worst tires on earth are the Discount Tires house brand. How they have managed to avoid a giant class-action lawsuit, I have no idea.

Borat: yes, there is. It’s called Goodride and comes from China. Worst. Tire. Ever. Trust me, you do NOT want to find that out when it’s raining and the road is wet…

Maybe they can convert the tire plants to produce condoms.

hahhahahahahhah…….. Goodyear tires are far better than Michelins.

Around here everyone wants the cheapest Chinese junk they can find, like Linglongs and BCT and Aurora and ʇıɥs like that.

Blimp is aerospace division, not tire division. Goodyear aerospace is actually defense contractor and does well.

Maybe they should offer rides to the public, I’m sure many people want to go up in the blimp.
I’ll pay 100.00 for a one hour ride.

They can make lots of money that way.

Ok, fewer miles = fewer tires, but mileage is not down 40% or anything. Yes their OEM biz is maybe slacking, but that means there should be a bit more demand at NTB and BigO and Tirerack and all that.

BTW – it is true if you compare Goodyear tires you don’t come away too impressed. Value-wise they are low, but they do have nice pretty raised white letters if that’s all you want.

“Because I don’t like Goodyear I am ecstatic people are getting laid off, especially those fat overpaid Americans.”, all the self-haters.

All GoodYear tires as OEM I replaced with Michellines and never looked back. Those got to be the worse tires on planet after Firestones. There is a good reason Goodyear is in crapper. Look at their comparison on Tirerack.com. If there is anything performing worse then Goodyears, please let me know to avoid.
