So the tube arrived tonight. It didn't come in a box, just sealed in plastic. But on the plastic it says "Made in the USA". It's also printed on the tube. The rubber feels softer than the TSC tube. Hopefully this weekend I'll get a chance to install it. Here's the list that I found for Bridgestone/ Firestone. Not sure if it's suppose to be public information since it has what looks like dealer prices but it also does give part numbers for US made tubes as well as tubes they import and sell under their brand name.

yea i take them to the shop. I learned that on my lawnmower. The tube at TSC cost me more than the tire shop charged to sell and install the tube. I also have bought some tubes for my tractor fronts (rears also have tubes that i bought) that get the flats and even at the cheapest place still cost just a bit less than the tire shop charges. But i have a small tire guy and keeps almost nothing in stock and i keep tubes at the farm so when i go there i have tubes to take with the flat if were not going to patch the old one.
