My second blowout in a month...

I drive an '86 Ford Bronco and my tires have blown out twice in a month. It makes me want my Camaro sooo much more! Smooth rides, A/C, POWER!! Agh. Buying it in December!

I was just bored and felt like sharing this..haha

Your first mistake was buying a ford. Your 2ed mistake a bronco . Should have gotten a GMC Jimmy at least!

cause i am a smarta$$ and i hate ford? simple is it not lol. Most people like my humor not sorry you dont . I speak my mind your on a chevy forum ford bashing is going to happen. Fact of life side i was trying to lighten up his mood

Fine you want some real advice ok. OP what brand tires did you use?. Did you get them new or used?. If new i would call the company for defective tires. If used how meny miles on them?. You need to be careful with that cause after high milage the outter walls of the tire fail. Glad your ok though cause a blow out can cause SUV to flip and crash bad. The top is SO heavy that gos double for 80's ones. Glad your ok though

Lessee if I'm gettin' this right, "blow outs", called BO's, are bad, smelly too.
But on the other hand, something else, called BJ's, are good, even if messy.

What a difference a letter makes...

I miss bias ply tires, they don't blow out, just slowly leak till flat, radials go off like bombs when they are done, great design.
