In the past 2 1/2 years i have 7 tires replaced. the side-wall of the tires split and i believe this has to do with the defective wheels. these are 18 inch wheels and i believe they are poorly designed resulting in the tire splitting. i have never experienced this sort of reoccurring problem in any other vehicle
4 tires have split the side wall due to impact on the road in the last year, pirelli pzero run flat p245018, tires seem defective with side wall splits after minor impacts.
2014 cadillac cts. consumer writes in regards to four flat tires due to low profile wheels.*smd the consumer believed in order to eliminate the problem, cadillac needs to replace the 19 inch wheels and tires with 18 inch wheels and tires that came equipped on the vehicle. the consumer stated she was never informed the 19 inch wheels and tires would be so easily damaged, just by driving on the highway. *jb
