Aneurysm bad.

It’s like a zit. Just pop it. (Green font please)

It’s not a tumor.

GH85Carrera 09-06-2023 07:02 AM

Expensive pimple. It will not heal.

Tires look new. Warranty?

Arizona_928 09-06-2023 08:31 AM

Yes, they're under 5,000 miles. Definitely manufacturer defect.

Kind of knarly tires for a 928.

stevej37 09-06-2023 08:39 AM

It could be a goiter....which sometimes go away on their own.:)

Poked with stick. Hernia didn't go away.

What brand is the tire? Did you get a new one?

peppy 09-06-2023 11:42 AM

Looks like a BFG all terrain. Not a cheap tire.

Steve Carlton 09-06-2023 03:32 PM

Maybe a Goodyear Wrangler. I don't know. Can't think with this headache right now.

There's only one tire brand I would use off road.... "Cooper".

Certainly not a great tire.

BFG all terrain not all they are cracked up to be. I think General grabber is better. Bfgs tend to fail for no apparant reason. Break belts, splt sidewalls, odd wear patterns ect.

I've had more duds than gems with them, even buying the 10 ply.

Time to go with some highway tread for the truck.

(at the risk of getting flamed)

One word for off road tire... "Coopers".

Years ago I ran a full sized SUV across remote South Australia for work. And I mean proper desert. Sealed roads out there are very rare. Think big rocks and gravel, mud, ruts for miles, whatever. In more than 8 years on the road I never had one issue related to tires.

From Coppers Australia web site.

I chipped a set of bfg ko2 and they would not warranty them. Coopers sound nice, but I'm don't think they warrant the premium. I'll run off brand 10 ply tires and chain up if the mud/snow gets too bad. This truck will eat a set of tires in 20,000 miles.
