| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I have had two bridgestone potenza re930 p19570r14 tires fail. both had sidewall blowouts after a brief period of highway travel. the tires are on a well-maintained collector vehicle that is rarely driven at highway speeds. something seems to happen to these tires when they are heated up by highway travel & then cooled down. the nhtsa database shows numerous sidewall blowouts with these tires. there must be a design or manufacturing problem with them. *jb |
