Re: [A/S] Tires



Just wanted to remind the list about tires.  A fellow came into Melbourne, FL 
last evening on three wheels.  He had experienced a tread separation on I-95 
and the resulting blow out did a lot of damage to about three or four feet of 
the grey, round corner piece immediately behind his curb side rear tire.  His 
Airstream is a 1997 and he was running the original tires.  The tread on the 
tires looked good and there were no serious cracks in the sidewalls.  

Earlier advice on the list about changing tires every four years or so should 
be followed.
