Consumer Description
tire size 275/80/22.5 Driving down highway 301, driver side steer tire’s side wall blew out with no warning. My motor home made a hard left, luckily no one was in that fast lane. I managed to recover control and started to head to the shoulder of the road. Before I could reach the shoulder the rim cut the tire and threw it off the rim and into the highway. This put my life , my wife and anyone on the highway’s life in severe danger!!! I called michelin and their rep inspected the tire and felt the tire was run low. I completely disagree. All tires were checked that day and if this steer tire was low it would have pulled to the left!!
