Tire problem #1

Replaced two tires and experienced flat tire after replacement. (goodyear).

Tire problem #2

I purchased firestone tires from sears, after I had driven 70 miles, one of the tires failed, I heard a loud pop, an explosion. I went back to the store where I purchased the tires. Sears' salesperson, at first, insisted that I probably hit something before failure. I know that I did not hit anything. I was driving about 35-40 miles per hour at the time failure occurred. I requested that the new firestone's tires that I purchased from sear be replace with tires of different manufacturer and sear's salesperson complied. (tiresize: p17565s14).
