  1. Totoya does not make tires I don't think..so in reality it's a moot point..Nascar is to blame and Goodyear needs to test their tires before releasing them to Nascar..these COT's need a different tire and compound and test, test, test before use and Nascar should give them the time to develop these tires and not just throw them at the teams and drivers and then throw 10-12 lap cautions to see whether they are properly fitted to the tracks, just an opinion, not fact


  2. yeah because tundras and camrys come with toyota made tires,

    It isnt their fault that the way the COT is built that when the car turns left al of the weight gets put on the right rear, maybe nascar should modify the

    car a little

  3. the tires would probably be Yokohama

    I think the shipping charges would be too expensive and a futher drain on our environment. So i'm going to have to say "no"

    It would be fun shipping all those worn out tires back to Japan though.

  4. Sorry, Toyota doesn't make tires

    This issue could of been avoided, if NASCAR had a test session at Indy. Nascar already knew there was an issue with tires wearing especially the right rear, they knew this from the 3 car tire test that Goodyear did on their own.

    Nascar always tested at Indy before why not this year of all years? A new car known to be hard on tires combined with a track known to eat tires away, trouble was a brewing with the choices Nascar made.

  5. I don't think they make tires(Toyota).  It was not Goodyears fault.  With the new car. there was not enough time to build a tire suitable for the surface at Indy.  Blame Nascar

  6. show me a toyota made tire

    where yall come from

  7. The problem is NASCAR not Goodyear.

  8. something needs to change.  you would think that they could come up with something taht could stay together. goodyear cant maybe if toyota made tires they could.

  9. Guys he's saying that since Toyota makes such great products and engines within the rules, maybe NASCAR should use thier help to make a new tire. I"m all for it!!

  10. If you watched the speed channel yesterday, NASCAR stated the tire problem was with Goodyear.  In most cases the tires are to leave rubber on the track in which the drivers rely on.  With this batch of tires, they were leaving dust instead of rubber.  Goodyear was said to be investigating the problem.  NASCAR needs to stay with a US based company.  Goodyear will get this resolved.

  11. This one was NASCAR's fault.  They were the ones that desided to not test Indy before that race.  NASCAR made the race a disaster not Goodyear.

  12. Toyota is an automobile manufacturer not a tyre manufacturer
