I had purchesed a set of Dick Cepek Extreme Country LT315/75/R16. The tires have 9/32nd left with approximately 15,000 miles. While driving on the highway the sidewall of the tire peeled off in one strip causing the tire to no longer hold its shape and blow out. Had it been a steer tire the incident could have been much worse. Twenty minutes prior to the failure all tires were inspected and confirmed to be inflated to the proper psi and without damage.

I have experienced a total of 5 sidewall blowouts on new general tires supplied on a F-350 200 Ford truck. The appearance is that Ford's tire problems extended to other makes and models in addition to the Firestone recall. I still have most of the tires that blew/became severely warn/unbalanced. Have there been other complaints on these vehicles? (tiresize: 235_75_R16)
