    Arrow Oh My, What The Heck Is That????????

    i saw this on another forum....never seen anything like it




    Bulges on Tire Sidewall










    DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOUR RIG

    There are over (12) tire brands currently on RECALL that
    your local Offroad 4WP Store and other Tire Companies have sold
    .




    MUST SEE Cool Video Below:
    Press Play
    Press Play 2

    Over 48,000 Pro Comp A/T LT265/75R16 are being recalled,
    NHTSA Campaign ID number : 08T013000 (CLICK)
    Click

    Reasons:: A Bulge Can Occur in the Lower Sidewall on the
    White Sidewall Which Indicates the Existence of a
    Separation Between Two Lower Sidewall Components.

    Center is required by law to replace them ABSOLUTELY FOR FREE

    There have been 2 RECALLS within one year for Pro Comp.......
    16 inch and 20 inch. Pro Comp is also having major problems with its M/T's for cracks in the sidewall

    that pisses me off... some of those tires are pretty damned expensive.

    I was looking at a set of Cooper Discoverer S/T and Pro Comp Xtreme A/Ts for my new truck...

    guess i just stick with the Nitto Terra Grapplers - I've had no issues with them...

    Our Big-O tire recently blew on us because of a tire tumor. I managed to keep the truck on the road, or our vehicle woulda looked like that pic.

    I don't think Our tire was in the recall list...

    that one looks like it was ours. we caught it Just in time last year.

    last year we went through 5 rear HT tread tires of different brands on our RACE RV.

    the worst being two EXPLODING at the same time at 70mph on the thruway in boise, ID.

    toy hauler RV's are not made for much weight. unless you get the big$$$ ones.
