Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Soon after purchacing new bridgestone tires we began to experience balance problems. the montgomery ward auto center where we purchased the tires repededly tried to get them balanced. one day while driving on the interstate, one of the tires blew out. the service department said it looked like seperation from running low pressure. this is unlikley since we check often and always inflate to the higher end of the tolerence.(for traction and treadwear) since then we've learned to have our tires checked when they seem to be out of balance.at this time we've had three of the origional four replaced due to seperation. the most recent incedent in august of this year, the replacement tire we were given was a contac by continental. we were told they don't make the tourensa anymore. we fear that the connental replacement tire has either been recalled or soon will be. also, we feel that we were sold defective tires origionally, or we wouldn't have had so many problems. our last remaining origional bridgestone tire has cracks on the sidewall. *ak( dot number: y7a6 tire size: p225-60r16 )
