Michelin was $16,150,000,000.00

Thats alot of rubber !!!!!! 16 billion dollars in one year . . . specialy considering the average person replaces their tires about half as often as they should.

I proudly contributed somewhere around $1000 to toyos sales

What sizes are the Kavir's available in? Will they be able to make them for Humvee's?

[Z Ya Later]

BFG is a subsidiary of Michelin. Hey Ken, is BFG only owned by Michelin or are they using their compound and stuff as well? Kinda makes me think they might the more affordable of Michelin line lol
