Oh yea. I wouldnt drive too much further than that. Too bad there arent any warranties on tires. The sidewall of the tire has broke down causing it too swell and bubble.
When I bought my jeep wrangler, it had a set of cheap wrangler tires on it. They were known to go bad, but i ran as long as possible. It got so bad, I couldnt make a hard stop because the tires were separating. When I would go to make a hard stop, the front end of my jeep would shudder and shake leaving my front end bouncing.
anyways, theres my contribution.

Classic Goodyear belt separation. My first set of Wrangler Radials did that in the mid 80's. Replaced them with another set, because I really liked the tread pattern. Two tires cupped and a third had the belt separate on that set before they had 25k on them. That was my last set of Goodyear anythings. Since about 1993 I've run nothing but Mickey Thompson/Dick Cepeks on my trucks and have never had a tire problem of any kind, short of pulling a nail out of the tread...

I had Good Year on my old Dakota and I should have known better than to have them on my new truck. They were horrible with any sign of rain or snow, and the new ones are just as bad. I will never buy Good Years on my own, but since they were already on the truck, I would have had to try to get the dealer to swap them off, which probably would have caused me to not get as good a deal as I did.
