I purchased the tires (4) in April 2008 through a wholesaler friend. I had the tires install and liked them.

It got a little worse than there was a scraping noise than boom and the tread flies out from the right of the truck. I pulled off onto the shoulder and got out and could hardly believe what I saw. Luckily no one was to my right as the truck swerved to the right. The tire was almost gone, the rim was damaged the right fender and door damaged and all the plastic parts were gone. This was on a Saturday evening and I pulled the truck into a business so it was the truck was off the road. The next day we found some of the plastic pieces about 75 feet from where the tire blew. We took pictures and had to wait till Monday to find out what need to happen. Monday morning I contacted the wholesaler and he gave me the number to cooper tire. I called and they took down information and said I would receive a letter explaining what I needed to do to file a claim.

If the tractor trailer driver did not notice something was wrong my son and I would have gone head on into the tractor trailer. This time there was little damage to the truck and we were both alive praise the lord. Now I was on the phone a second time to cooper tire and turning in a second claim. This is Monday afternoon August 25, 2008. We got the truck off the road and I removed all the remaining tires and replaced them. Remember these two tires separated about 48 hours apart. I just got a letter from coopers insurance company and they claim I caused the tires to separate so they are not repsonsible.
