| Firestone tire was 2 years old, but unused (spare tire). put on right front of car before trip. driven 200 miles at 70mph (on i 75 south near gainesville, fl) in 95 degree temperature when tread came off right front tire. tire was still fully pressurized, just had no tread. tread coming off car left black rubber marks across paint on front fender and tore off piece of chrome (neither currently repaired). fhp stopped and indicated a nearby exit. drove very slowly to exit and changed tire. returned home and replaced tire. did not request refund as damaged tire had no tread remaining.( dot number: tire size: p21575r15 ) | |||
