Anyone have a good resource for purchasing inner tubes? I need to stock up on some but all I'm finding is China made tubes. I don't know about you guys, but I've never had any good results with the China made tubes, as eventually their seams split and leak. We have a tire store not far from here that used to carry Goodyear and Firestone brand tubes, which were made in the USA and always gave good results, but since both companies starting getting their materials from China, this tire store stopped carrying both brands. What gets me is, the store dropped both brands due to being made in China, but yet picked up another off brand company who's made in China.
I'm pretty sure it's to the point of all tire companies being made in China and USA quality is pretty much gone, but just looking for suggestions on what brands you guys have had good luck with. I'm off to Tractor Supply here in a few minutes to see what they have and then to a well known hardware store in the next town over to checkout their inventory. I'm confident that I won't find anything made in USA but I need tubes for this 60 and want to get it rolling again today.
