Consumer Description

IMPACTED ROAD HAZARD THAT SEVERELY DAMAGED THE PASSENGER SIDE TIRES AND WHEELS REQUIRING FULL REPLACEMENT. HAD A SECOND INCIDENT AND REPLACED A THIRD TIRE ON THE SAME SIDE THE FOLLOWING MONTH. HAVE SPOKEN TO OTHERS WHO EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM WITH "LOW PROFILE TIRES" WHICH WOULD BE A DESIGN APPLICATION BY THE OEM'S THAT IN MY OPINION SHOULD BE CONSIDERED DANGEROUS TO THE CONSUMER. THE LOW PROFILE TIRE BY DESIGN CANNOT WITHSTAND EVEN THE SMALLEST ROAD HAZARD AND AT HIGH SPEEDS HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BE LIFE THREATENING TO CONSUMERS. I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD BE RECALLED. *TR
