| Description of the problem | I have had two failures of carlisle tires, model radial trail, size st225/75r15/d. Neither tire blew, but the first had the tread peel away. Diagnosed by the tire shop as an internal separation. Shop noted that the tire was properly inflated and was in good condition. I still have one of the tires if you desire to examine it. I consider these failures to be potentially very dangerous and have read numerous complaints from other owners about these tires. Please investigate. *nm |
