| Initially experienced tread seperation during annual check in oct 99. replaced tire and put trailer in storage. in july when taking the trailer out of storage, the new tire tread just peeled off. i towed the unit to the trailer dealer, rv traders, for correction. the dealer upon further inspection noted that the remaing oem tires (3), with approx 10,000 miles, were also starting to seperate. i was about to go on vacation, so had to install (4) new tires (goodyear). rv traders in contact with the tire manufacturer agreed to re-imburse me at $50.00 per tire after i sent a letter to the manu describiong the circumstances. this i did on july 21, 2000. i have yet to hear from the manufacturer in chelsea, ma.( dot number: cfkcmt2389 tire size: st205/75r1 ) | |||
