Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: We had a tire blow out through the sidewall recently. we drive a 2004 toyota sienna le fwd with dunlop sp sport 4000 a/s tires installed as oem. we had just barely passed 26,000 miles when we had a side wall blowout on the driver side rear tire while travelling app. 70 mph on the highway in south carolina. i pay attention to tire pressure and teadwear, so the tire that blew should have been inflated properly, and in this case i had already begun thinking about getting new tires because the tread was approaching the wear bars. this is a very poor-performance tire, and i'm amazed toyota made a corporate decision to put these tires on their sienna "family vans." dunlop should be embarassed to even attempt to sell them.
