I run a rental car co. In the past 6 months I have had 5 of the Firestone S4S steeltex radial 16 inch tires, that the tread had rolled off the 15 pass van, someone is going to get hurt bad.. I went to the local Firestone store and all they want to do is make an adjustment on the tires that failed, but I have this tire on all 7 of my vans and I am afraid to rent them out... I need some help from Firestone to replace all of these tires...help me before someone gets hurt.
