| Description of the problem | I was 60 miles from home and my bridgestone run flat tire blew on my 2004 sienna. The vehicle required towing because the run flat didn't do the job it was supposed to.(you're supposed to be able to drive 100 more miles at 60mph) i drove 11 miles and the tire was down to the rim. My toyota dealer said these tires are only rated for 20,000 miles but i'm only at 17,000 when the mishap happened. The tires are over $300. 00 a piece. Now all 4 tires are wearing on the inside due to the awd so i am told. Buyers beware!!!!!!! |
