Goodyear Marathon are still made in China

The following email is from Goodyear (not a Dealer or Distrubuter) and should finally settle all the talk about finding Marathon us made.

I appreciate the response but this did not answer my specific question, ARE
ANY OF THE ST225 75R15 MARATHON TRAILER TIRES MADE IN THE US? I have been
searching for these tires but unable to locate US produced tires even
thought some on the internet claim to have found them. Thanks again for
your prompt response.
