Answer
Hello Norman!

In response to your question, I believe Douglas Tires is manufactured by Kelly Springfield for Wal-Mart mainly which if I'm not totally wrong is a division of Goodyear Tire Company. So, the long and short of it is a private label brand Goodyear tire(90% sure) which will be very low quality in comparision to the name brand Goodyear. You can compare it to, Wal-Mart brand fruit loops and the Kellogg version of the real thing(looks and tastes close, but not quiet as good). The DOT code you gave has plant numbers and run codes(manufacturer talk) and the date code, which your tire was produced the 47th week of 2000. Do you have a problem with the tire or just info searching? Let me know!!
