Contour 6-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 58,521 miles
My Ford 95 SE 4-door Contour, came with P205/60rx15T BSW tires. I replace the original front tires, which were (Firestone F-hawk gta bw-wth same, after 35 thousand miles. After an additional 15 thousnand, I replaced the original rear tires with another brand name-rotating the newer firestones to the rear of the car. At 56 thousand miles the left rear tire blows out, and the tire shop said that bubbles on the inner sidewall prevented the tire from being repaired. Two days later the left rear tire blows, and I am left with-out a spare tire, which is when I replace the tires that were 30.5 thousand miles previously: Hogan tire & auto service centers, waltham massuachusetts, and authorized Firestone dealer. I now have missmatched tires, on my car as a result of preliminary tire wear and breakdown. I would like a Firestone dealer to provide me with four new tires, which to resolve the my tire difficulties. Cordially glenn chesnut.
