Latest Fairlane complaints
I have had two bridgestone potenza re930 p19570r14 tires fail. Both had sidewall blowouts after a brief period of highway travel. The tires are on a well-maintained collector vehicle that is rarely driven at highway speeds. Something seems to happen to these tires when they are heated up by highway travel & then cooled down. The nhtsa database shows numerous sidewall blowouts with these tires. There must be a design or manufacturing problem with them. *Jb
