    Tire wears on inside wall where tread meets sidewall on goodyear rsa emt tires i have gone through 4 tires now all with the exact same issue. Goodyear has worked with me on "pro-rating" at a reduced price to replace. I am still unhappy with tires failing after less than 10,000 miles and having to pay to replace them. *tr

Around 15 thousand, i noticed a very thin spot and had the alignment checked again, and the aligner told me that the metal was showing through, and the tires were about to split apart. Had the tires changed for another brand on all four corners, and…

    Front good year tires separating from the belt. Car is in perfect alignment checked by dealer. Hundreds maybe thousands have been reporting the same problem, all at around 20k miles. Dealer failing to warranty them claiming that its normal on these trucks due to the suspension??? Not my problem! Do not plan on spending $460 dollars per tire every 20k miles. *tr

There was a recall issued in 2006 for 2006 srt8 models but nothing for the 2007 model year. These tire have been determined unsafe in 2006, but the same tires and problems are happening in 2007. I had 2 wheel alignments done and both were ok. It is a tire issue that keeps…
