Question:

Where are the tires and wheels made, in the combo TA56AR? Can I specify a production date code of less than 8 months old on tire orders?

Hello Virgil. The Taskmaster wheels and tires like the # TA56AR combo are manufactured in China.

We cannot guarantee a specific date code for our tires. We typically move tires pretty quickly. We receive shipments regularly and we make sure to rotate our stock to prevent old stock from getting sent out. Also, our tire warehouse is climate controlled and tires do not age in proper storage. The warranty would start when you receive them.

Also note that with the current state of the supply chain, getting a tire/wheel that was made in China that is less than a year old is basically impossible.

Hey Virgil, did the information about the manufacturing location and tire storage help with your decision? I'm asking because your experience could be valuable to others considering similar purchases.

@JesseM Yes, the climate controlled storage is very helpful. I ended up choosing Hercules Strong Guard C-ST, after seeing the robust tread profile in person. It was a tough choice. The Providers have a better “winter” tread, but I expect to encounter more hot asphalt than ice patches. If I become fortunate enough to fall travel, I’ll likely switch to a “gripier” tread.
