Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: One tire located on the right rear developed a crack in the sidewall, going completely around the right rear tire in the same line as the tire size. this tire also has a crack beginning to form at the outer base of the tread. after having the tires removed i found a hairline crack beginning at the base of the tread on the inside of another tire. i'm not sure where the tire was located on the vehicle, because they had already been removed and weren't marked. the other two tires dot vd 60 aw4 108 show signs that a crack may be beginning to form on the outer sidewall but show no obvious failure at this point. i had the tires replaced in concern for safety and have them in storage pending recall or warranty adjustment. the complete tire size is 31x10.50 lt r15. the box wouldn't take this many letters in the questionaire. if anyone has questions concerning the tires, since they are not under recall, they need to contact me promptly. i must return them for adjustment if they are not recalled.*ak (dot number: vd60aw4288 tiresize: 31x10.50lt)
