| The two front tires failed after approximately 23,000 miles of wear. the left front was worn through one set of steel belts for approximately 1/5 of the tire circumference. the left front was worn through the tread for approimately 1/5 of the tire circumeference. both areas of abnormal wear were on the right side of the tires when looking forward from the drivers seat. digital photos are available fo the failed tires. the tires were balanced and the front end was realigned when the tires were installed. the vehicle is maintained in a good state of repair and is not subject to abuse. the failed tires were replaced on a pro-rated basis at the pint of purchase. the front end was also relaigned. unfortunately, i was not provided with any quantitative information on this front end alignment so can only conclude that no unusual or abnormal conditions existed. the orignal symptom was an increasing level of vehicle vibration primarily when decelerating through 30 mph. the following addtional information was located on the inside or blackwall side of the tires: 85288 in raised numbers and 8h2298 in a recessed box with rounded corners. if you have any questions or require addtional information or copies of the photos of the failed tires, please contact me. best regards from the sunshine stae. s/s p>j> stager. *ak( dot number: cc60 tire size: p215/70r15 ) | |||
