With the whole Goodyear thing: just remember the drug cartels use TONS OF TIRES hauling drugs at the regional level. They also own an inordinate amount of used tire shops.
Makes me wonder if GOODYEAR is in the drug running/money laundering 'business' … Local tire dealers tell us the local godfather buys 12 tires at a time, several times a year. ( And he is not a runner; he dooly tanks liquid meth.)
When you have seen the 'tire parties' you will understand why so many tires. The thugboys destroy the tires getting the filled ones off the rims.
