Years back (50) going with Dad when he would buy a new car for work, Olds. or Cad. at the Dealer there would be a Vogue Tyre display! If I remember right I believe theses Tyres (back then had "Gold" white walls Not White walls? The Dealer said that "they" were the UP Scale tyres.
This outing always seem to take about half a day, With lunch! Of coarse I had to Sit in every Car at the Dealer, that wasthe deal and part of the Fun!Fun Times with Dad!

 Looks like they are a specialty company that makes bling tires for oversize bling wheels as seen on customized SUVs etc. total sales numbers are probably very low. If only one customer responded to the survey and gave them a top rating, they would show 100% satisfaction!

Likely they have a major manufacturer like Goodyear actually making their tires for them. There is a suggestion to that effect on their website. 

I had never heard of them either.....
