| I had these 16 inch wilderness tires on my last suburban. a year ago i was on my way home from a trip when we had to change the tire. it was riding rough and uneven. after taking off the tire, i could see that it was coming apart. we were fortunate it didn't blow out. now i have this same tire on my new vehicle. i wanted them replaced but the dealership says there is nothing wrong with them. i know for a fact that i had 16 inch wilderness tires on my last suburban and that one came apart. i do not have confidence in these tires and think the matter should be more closely investigated.( dot number: tire size: 16 inch ) | |||
