I was a purchaser for a garbage company and I bought Yokohama tires for the garbage trucks. They were good tires.

My FIL worked for a tire/garage for years as a mechanic before breaking out on his own at his shop at home. He always says Yokohamas are good tires.

As far as I know, Yokohama makes tires for or in partnership with:
(General--sometimes sold under the Continental name..Continental owns majority stake in General)
Toyo.
BF Goodrich--Yokohama got into the US market only because BF Goodrich and Yokohama originally created a joint partnership in 1917 to create Yokohama. BFG was majority owner till theyy sold most of their stake
Hankook--Yokohama is part owner of this S. Korean company (sold at Walmart).
Kumho
They also bought out the old Mohawk Rubber Company (for those of you old enough to remember the Mohawk brand) and recently, that brand has resurfaced in specialty tires for the classic car restoration/vintage aftermarket crowd.
This, from the same good folks that brought us Pearl Harbor........

I don't know which tires you are looking at but the
Yokohama Parada Spec-X on tirerack is the top performer in street/sport Truck all-season

Why was it trashed, was it under the bed? I've learned, fortunately NOT the hard way, to check the spare. Not that easy a task in the Prius but when I found only 12 PSI in the '95 Odyssey at ~6 years I am careful despite the effort.The tire had never been on the ground but it was trashed.
