| Description of the problem | I've got a 2004 nissan maxima. I have aprox 21,000 miles on it. My goodyear rsa tires (oem) have started to split on the side wall. My tires still have over 60% of the tread left. Goodyear is prorating the tires at 25% of tire wear used. My concern is that i know for a fact that my maxima is not the only car that has had trouble with these tires. It would be horrible, if someone with the same problem didn't know about it and had an accident because the side of their tire blew out. Forums. Maxima. Org has many people that have reported this same problem. |
