TIRES - TREAD/BELT | |||
I have had two tire separations with these tires. the last one happened about two weeks before all the news hit. in both cases the tire separated on the right rear. separations happened at low speed, no accidents and no injuries. there is definitely a problem with these tires. *ak (tiresize: 8.75r16.5)( dot number: tire size: 8.75r16.5 ) |
