1988 Chevrolet K1500 Tires Problems

“All four of my sears guardsman trailhandler ap size lt265/75r16 load range c tires have seperated. Two occured while driving and have been replaced. The other two tires were verified by big o today that they have seperated and created air pokets in the tires, and told me that it was a hazard. Luckily no one was injured and there were no accidents. Sears took the first tire back and paid me for the life left on the tred. The first tire deflated, while the last three are still inflated.”

“When we bought this truck in 1988, the original tires were firestones. At about 44,000 miles, I had to replace them due to the peeling that was taking place. It had peeled enough to expose a layer of white underneath. I still have the original firestone spare tire, which I used only once. I have heard that the problems went back to 1991, I contest that, it goes back to 1988. Enclosing, I had bought goodyears to replace them, and they lasted me 56,000 miles. Fortunate, I did not have a accident due to tire failure. Thank you for your time.( DOT number: tire size: lt22575r16 )”
