They do that because when they MFG a truck / car or whatever it's put out to bid for the size and spec's they want and who ever come's in with the cheapest bid for that amount of volume of tire needed.
Well apparently Toyota is keeping Dunlop in business because I see these tires on no other vehicle. If I were going to buy an FJ and it had these on there I'd be pissed! All of the advertising pictures shows the FJ with BFG A/T's

The TRD rims with BFG AT KO tires are optional on the FJC.

It is almost comical. The 4RUnner is made in Japan. The Dunlops are made in the USA. So the tires were made here, shipped to Japan, installed on a truck, and returned to the US.
