Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: We were driving a 1996 ford f 150 4x2 in center lane of i 435 about 70 miles per hour when we had a rear driver side uniroyal laredo tire completly separate. this tire had about 33 psi pressure in it. this caused damage to the rear of truck. cost unknown at this time. we gently pulled over to edge of interstate. when we got out of vehicle the bad tire was deflating. i changed this tire and put the spare on. i went back and picked up all of the pieces i could find. these tires are not the original tires. i had used these on another vehicle. they have been stored inside. the tread use was not extensive. i put these on the rear about this same time last year. these had a classification of m/s. this vehicle came with a goodyear highway tread tire. i wanted something on the rear for winter that had a m/s designation in case i was standed on road that required this. this was the first time something like this has happened to me. i have three more of these tires. i would like something done to assure my safety. please advise. thank you. *ak (tiresize: 235/75/r15)( dot number: tire size: 235/75/r15 )
