| Description of the problem | Goodyear tire tread separation on 2008 jeep grand cherokee srt8: both front tires (gy eagle rs-a 255 45r20- run flats) have delaminated leaving me to limp home when the left front tire suddenly went to zero air pressure and that's when i first noticed the problem. This is obviously a very common problem in this tire (see forum thread: http://www. Cherokeesrt8. Com/forums/showthread. Php? T=24831&highlight=good+year+tread+separation) i saved the tires and have pictures. I also have alignment specs showing it was within guidelines. I have since replaced the tires at my expense with another brand. |
