“Fully treaded tire that had been mounted as a spare tire was used and lasted for 2 weeks before the tread completely separated at 55 MPH. Tread departed tire carcass in one peice, damaging several components in the left rear quarter of my vehicle. My wife was able to maintain control of the vehicle otherwise. I have contacted continental general tire. (tiresize: p235/75r15)”
