Hi All, Well this should ruin someones day. ABC15News , local TV news for Phoenix, did a story to night on how Cooper Tires have been failing in any State that has hot weather. It seams Cooper left out a rubber wedge that will cause the tread to come off, mostly during hot weather. Cooper is the only tire mfg that does not have this rubber wedge that cost penny's to include in the manufacturing process and has known this to cause 218 deaths and 300 serious accidents since 1996 but refuses to include the wedge. The news stated Cooper has been having the court files sealed upon settlement to prevent the news meadia from finding out the results. You might wanna check your off brand tire names for the Cooper Tire mfg codes as they make a huge number of tires for different companys. You can get the codes from the link above. I now have 14 Cooper tires mounted . All I can say is some tire shop in gonna fall in love with my check book this next week. T_Bone
