| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Previous to this day this tire showed no sign of failure. on this day it began to feel a little bumpy and rapidly declined in its performance. when it failed it shed 1/3 of its tread but did not blow out. in all my years and many tires that have separated i never have had a tire lose its tread. plus they always have gradually separated which gave me time to replace them. on this truck i always use used tires,and thus a large number of them result in separation after a while. i know the manufacturers say that it doesnt matter which way they roll when mounted but i can guarantee that it does. if i install a tire opposite to its previous rolling direction within 6 months it will separate, no matter how old it was when i got it. when this tire separated it did so rapidly and explosively causing the vehicles behind me to scatter to either side. i have the tire if you want to examine it. i will retain it for a few days if you do. please contact me if you do, thankyou. *ak |
