my tire went kaboom!!fuzion sucks !!
so i was driving and my car felt a little funny the steering wheel was soft and loose like if the steering went out so pull to the side get out and start to look around my cr i look at the front first then the rear i notice my rear driver side tire is low ,, so i ue the stock jack and get it up take it off and notice that the thing was more than low it was a total loss!!!! after looking the tire up on tire rack and looking at the reviews seems that this tire has a issue with sidewall failure and loss of air so i go to my local firestone to see what they can do as you can see this tire looks almost new ..the tell me ive been driving it low on air but are no signs of under inflation or over inflation..i also just check the car before i left the house as i was going to fairfeild a 1 1/2 hr drive and i feel safe doing a small safety check before i head out anywere ...anyways here are the pics...Fuzion Sucks!!!! wonder if thats why it has been pulled from shelves????

thats the the problem i told the store i can see if it was a bald tire or a tire with wear on the outside or inside but its still a full tread tire...he said i as driving with it flat so i asked him if i did that i should have wheel damage?no wheel damage at all ..i then asked him if he know what a jline wheel was and the price of them he said no!!i said well if ya did you would not drive on flats with them..i have no camber and a light stretch ..the tire is a 205/40/17 on a 17x8 wheel..i've asked around and called tire rack tech support and was told that the tire is fine with the wheel i got.i have no puncture marks,nails,or under inflation over inflation marks that's what makes me mad..and after i read the reviews of other having sidewall failure im kinda scared and want to take all of them of my car and call corporate and ask if there is any kinda of trade in or get like some kinda of money back or another tire as i do not want to have these on my car anymore ..
