Goodyear G159 tread separation - one_dusty_hoot - 08-04-2006 10:49
I came across this report by a law firm.
"http://www.jlbreport.com/2006/07/10/a-
dangerous-rv-tire-%E2%80%93-the-goodyear
-159-%E2%80%93-has-caused-problems/"
I have 6 of these with about 13K miles
purchased by the former owner.
Anyone have these? Tread separation?
Blow outs? Poor wear on front?

Hi Bob,
I have two G-159's on my steer axle. They are wearing unevenly,
pull to the left and will be shifted to the tag axle ASAP. I just
had an alignment done, and the coach was not "out of spec" enough to
cause the wear that I'm seeing. I am not happy with them, but have
not been able to find an alternative supplier in the Harrisburg
area.

Most of the RVs mentioned (if not all) run the low-profile, much
lighter-duty 22.5 tires, completely different than our 11R and 12R
tires.
That having been said, I have only had one set of Goodyears on a
Wanderlodge, ran them one year and had cupping on the tires.
