Consumer Description

I PURCHASED 2 BRAND-NEW BF GOODRICH TRACTION T/A TIRES - 225/55/R16 95H TIRES ON OR ABOUT 09/0109. 3 DAYS LATER, WITH APPROXIMATELY 300 MILES ON THESE TIRES, I EXPERIENCED A BLOWOUT ON ONE OF THEM DUE TO SIDEWALL FAILURE. TIRE WAS REPLACED WITH SAME TIRE AND 2ND TIRE WAS INSPECTED AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS FINE. ON 10/08/09 I EXPERIENCED A BLOWOUT OF THE 2ND OF THE 2 ORIGINAL TIRES, AGAIN DUE TO SIDEWALL FAILURE. I DO NOT HAVE THE DOT NUMBER FROM THE 1ST TIRE, BUT THE DOT NUMBER/ID FROM THE 2ND TIRE IS: BE6RMC11. *TR
