Controlling the SUV became difficult, but the consumer managed to pull over safely on two mangled, dead flat, shredded tires. The roadway she was traveling was clear of debris, potholes, etc. The SUV was damaged and the two tires were un-salvageable.
Kumho solus kl21 tires size 235/65 r17 showing sidewall cracking at 23,000 miles. I have properly maintained (rotated, inflated, balanced, alignment) the tires. All 4 are showing sidewall cracking. I have 2 other cars that have been exposed to the same conditions with tires that are at least 2 years older that are not showing sidewall cracking. Concerned about potential blow-out at high speed.
