Ken, I have a question about a tire by the name of Road Hugger Radial GT. We have these on a old 1984 Supra that my son drives. Size M+S P 225/60R14. My question is who makes this tire? Can't sem to find much on them. The reason I'm asking is that I saw a notice about Cooper tires and a nationwide settlement and was trying to find out if these tires were affected by it. We bought the tires a few months ago so they have very few miles on them. Any help you can give would be great, thanks for your time.

hi folks.
check the DOT code on the side of the tire.. the first 2..or 3 letters.. after the letters "DOT" is the plant code. cooper has two plants, the codes are: UT and UP. see if either appears on your tires... then get back to me.

Ken, thanks for the reply, looks like the DOT numbers are UPRV-138E There are numbers next to it as follows = R-3303-K10961. I hope these are the correct numbers as they are the only ones I can find. Again, thanks for your help.

Teri, thanks again for the replies, I looked at Google.com and found some stuff but nothing on who actually makes the tires, I know that Cooper private labels under many different names but can not seem to find who makes Road Hugger. The search continues.. Thanks again,
Ralph
