Hey Mark,
Was this tire a 255 x65 x15 Eagle LS by chance? I had one blow all at one
time on NEW concrete expressway in Dallas last week in 104 degree heat. I
have taken what is left of the tire to two Goodyear dealerships and guess
what? They labeled it as a performance tire therefore it has NO WARRANTY.
They don't even stock them- it's a two week wait time for the special order.
but, if I'm willing to wait several weeks they will inspect the tire and
give me a decision. They also were glad to sell me one- on the truck,
mounted and balance for $235. I'm having Discount Tire putting on Goodrich
t/a's saturday. 275 x60 x15. They want $395. with lifetime everything. The
guy from discount did offer to get me another wheel and sell me two
Goodyears so I'd have enough spares.
