Same here. I've hacked on tires with knives (not maliciously), and it would take a very powerful man to reach around to the inside of the tire and make that cut.

 

are those brand new tire? if so you might want to talk to the shop that you bought them from. that might be covered as a road hazard or possibly a defective tire.

 

Since you're in Canadia, I would surmise that your truck was attacked by an angry beaver.

 

@Dodge dude, i donno i didnt think it possible to get to that with a rock er something? Besides dont explain the scratches or snapped bed liner.
@Stewie, no idea why but thats what they told me. And i have no idea im so confused at this
@Unregistereduser- I have no idea, i found it odd on the inside of the tire too but i cant understand how a rock or something does that without me noticing.
@Crazziewolfie- I wish, no there a used set i got off kijiji (same as craigs list)
@Vdub- Obviously the answer ahahaha

 

that suck. i thought i remember you mentioning something about having to buying new tires.

i hate Craigs list. i find kijiji so much easier to navigate.

 

I agree that its highly doubtful that the tire damage was caused be an individual. It looks like the belt is separating.

Maybe thats why the tires were being sold. Just wasnt as bad and didnt notice anything wrong when you bought them.

 

I don't deny the vandalism of the truck with the scratches and bedliner being snapped, however like Unreg stated, it is tough as hell to tear apart the inside of the tire like that.

I also agree with kejobe, I think the tires already had a structural issue, maybe somehow you clock the control arm with it and it tore.

So many possibilities here. But human vandalism I don't think is one of them.

 

It was my rear driver side one, if that can help clear some issues up. I think the easiest thing is just to move on from it. Anyways can i fit 15" rims on my 01? Ive been digging around and cant see a thing on it here. I found these and it seems to be the only thing i can afford at the moment. http://peterborough.kijiji.ca/c-cars...AdIdZ427920167

 

IIRC, yes...BUT, you might have to grind the capiler for 15s to fit. Im not 100% sure if thats all though.

 

I have scratches like that running down both sides of my truck from tree branches.
