Made In USA or Japan Trials Tires? was created by 71-yamahaRob

Hi, I'm looking to buy a set of Trials-style tires for my Yamaha L5T, sizes 2.75x17 and 3.00x17, are there any brands that make motorcycle tires/tubes in the USA? hard to find country of origin on these. If not, would like to buy Japanese made Tires and Tubes.
Thanks, Robert

Afraid that might be the Answer. Are IRC tires and tubes any good? seems like a reputable company.

I have not tried their tires yet but their tubes are good.
