The BFG R1 and R1-S are made in the USA.

They don't normally sell the DZ03G in the US, but they can be acquired for a high price. The local shop that runs a rally car gets them to use for tarmac rally stages, but they cost a ton here (imported from the UK). Not worth it for the US track rats as there are stickier slicks for the money, the advantage for rally is they are more forgiving and can handle some light dirt action.
