| Description of the problem | I was driving from new jersey to my home in massachusetts. The trip is about 250 miles. About 18 miles from my home the sidewall blew out of the rear tire. Road conditions were wet and snowy the whole trip. I don't think i ever exceed 60 mph. I checked all tires for proper inflation before leaving my home for new jersey. The tires are 60,000 mile tires and had about 43000 at the time of the failure. The tire is a bridgestone dueler h/t 689 - this is not shown in your selection list. I had to select the closest name but the real name is the one written here. |
