I saw the tires but don't know what I saw other than a blown out tire. The last tire blowout was really bad as I just got on the MS River bridge in Memphis (if you have never been on it, it is two lanes, extremely narrow and TONS of traffic). I had to drive the entire span with this blownout tire as there are no breakdown lanes. It was pretty much shredded by the time I saw it. We just did not know if they were recommending the wrong size tire or something wrong with the front end that caused more pressure on certain areas of the tire. Anyway, I loved my toyota as this was my third one in 10 years. But had to move on because that was a terrifying event with my family and could not take any more chances.
