| Description of the problem | The tire failed as my wife approached the off ramp to our house off the freeway. The tire was quite destroyed and the one on the other side was also unsafe(although the tread looked good), both were replaced and i no longer have the good tire i do have the destroyed tire. I entered the tire size by the size of the replacments my garage installed, assuming they were the same size. *ak( dot number: destroyed tire size: p215 75r15 ) |
