Chinese tire recall

Post by redlava »

http://www.cnn.com/2007/AUTOS/....htmlThe gist of the story is that 450,000 tires made by a Chinese factory are being recalled because of a missing gum strip that keeps the steel belts from separating. The effected brands include Westlake, Telluride, Compass and YKS in these sizes; # LT235/75R-15 # LT235/75R-16# LT235/85R-16 # LT245/75R-16 # LT265/75R-16 # LT3X10.5-15.
