Dextero dht2 tire p245/70r16 106t this tire I purchased at walmart March 2013. I have had problems with sliding not gripping the pavement also looks like the bulge out. I have called walmart they said they probably need balanced or rotated so they did this still doing the same thing. I called them they said they need their tire specialist to look it over. Also told me there was no recall on this tire. I could not even find this tire on the recall list I assume its from china. The tire specialist took measurments of tire and had to talk with another specialist about what to do if anything they said. I feel unsafe driving with these tires and wanted to see what I could do from here. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
