| Description of the problem | We have had problems with the general ameritrac tr p255/70r17 tires on our truck. Within the last 3 months we have had to replace 3 tires, they are very easily punctured. We have not done out of the ordinary driving. It is normal ground and normal driving. When the tires go flat, the puncture sites are too big to plug. Our mini van tires hold up much better than these truck tires. Is anyone else having this problem? The truck and tires are only a year old and the tread is still good. *nm |
