About BFGoodrich
BFGoodrich, a Michelin brand, makes All-Terrain and performance tires; the plants that still operate under the B.F. Goodrich name are in Tuscaloosa, Alabama and Woodburn, Indiana.
Heritage & History
BFGoodrich was founded by Benjamin Franklin Goodrich in Akron, Ohio in 1870, making it one of the oldest American tire and rubber companies. The company was a pioneer in American rubber technology, producing the first pneumatic bicycle tire in the United States and contributing to early automobile tire development. BFGoodrich's performance tire heritage spans over 150 years, including extensive involvement in motorsports and off-road vehicle development.
Michelin acquired the BFGoodrich brand in 1988, bringing it under the umbrella of one of the world's largest tire manufacturers. Michelin has maintained the BFGoodrich identity as a performance-oriented brand distinct from the Michelin label, and has invested in domestic manufacturing, including the Tuscaloosa, Alabama and Woodburn, Indiana plants that still operate under the B.F. Goodrich name.
Michelin North America, Greenville, South Carolina
Michelin has been the largest private employer in Greenville County, South Carolina for decades. The company's Greenville area facilities employ thousands of workers and produce tires for the North American market. The South Carolina manufacturing investment reflects Michelin's long-term commitment to American production — the company has operated facilities in the Upstate South Carolina region since the 1970s.
The BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 and KO3, manufactured in South Carolina, represent the core of the brand's all-terrain product line. The KO2's CoreGard Technology — a tougher compound and sidewall construction — was developed specifically for the off-road market, where sidewall punctures from rocks and brush are a primary failure mode. The split-layer tread design provides traction on mud, snow, and rock simultaneously.
