I recently had a flat tire for the first time on my 1999 ford f150. When i lowered the spare tire from its stowed position, there were eight badly worn spots on the sidewall of the tire. The wear was apparently came from the way the stowage position is designed. The degradation of the tire may make it unsafe to drive on the spare tires of f150's. *nm

Our good year tires that were put on the truck are showing tread seperation.the good year manufacture told us they would have us go to the nearest good year dealer and they would pro rate the tires...why? It is their defect not ours. They would replace with good years...why? We don't want them. Why should we risk going to another town 20-25 miles from here to replace these tires with possible defective ones again!…
