another darn blow out.
2 tire blow out in 1 week.
I have the stock Bridgestone tires.
I wonder if they are defective tires?

I only got 26,000 mi. out of my Bridgestones and I cheched tire pressure once a week plus rotate and balance when needed. I was told Bridgestones are soft rubber.I believe it.

These can't be any worse then the General Tires I had that were OEM on my truck. Needless to say they were crap as when I was carrying my camper the treads started to seperate. I now have Michelin, as per my signature, and haven't looked back. I won't hessitate to replace them with another set of Michelins. Good luck................................SWH...

We had a sidewall blowout on the ALCAN while moving. Nothing motivates you to do a speed change like seeing a bear cross the road 500 yards or less down from you.
