I was just entering I-90 at harlem Ave when without warning my 2 month old tire went flat. There was no warning, and by the time I was able to get off the expressway the tire was shredded. I changed the tire with my spare and since the tire was a replacement on a set from ntb I decided that I would completely replace the whole set as I was completely without any confidence with ntb. The tire did not look like it had any problems except for the damage done by running flat. I replaced the tires 8/9/08 and upon returning home from the tire store read a consumer's report alert that some chinese made valve stems are failing. While at this point I do not have the stem in question the tire was of chinese manufacture and all symptoms I encountered are consistent with stem failure.
