I also posted this in the main tech forum but thought some here might help.
I took a set of 285 Hoosiers to the tire store to have them turned
inside out. When I arrived for pick-up they said they needed to show
me something they found. One tire had three splits in the sidewall
exactly 9 inches apart. I changed the tires at the track and loaded
them to take them to the Auto Tire. I may have overlooked it but it
seems suspicious to me but I wanted to give the benefit of the doubt
first because they would have been on the inside. They had about 35
runs on them and not a problem. Anyone ever have this problem with
splitting? Anything Auto Tire could have done to cause this and then
corrected their mistake? The other three tires were fine after being
turned inside out.
Any help appreciated and contact info for the Hoosier tech guy mentioned in the forums in the past would be good too. Thanks.
