I had a blowout on the freeway last night... entire inside wall of my Kumho had seperated, outside tread was fine. (This was on the driver side rear) Metal wires everywhere... pretty ugly.

Don't have the camera today, but I'll get pictures for you guys ASAP.

BTW, couldn't even change the tire myself, everytime I jacked the car up, that piece of garbage BMW calls a jack would twist to a dangerous angle, so I had to call a tow truck to change it for me.

Edit: This was supposed to be in Gordon's thread... sorry.

You sort of judge a tire by the tread you see... then you get a glimpse of the inside rear...oops.

but I seem to remember you getting those tires not too long ago - and you don't run the car in winter - and that tire looks REALLY scary!!

How many miles were on those tires anyhow?
