[QUOTE="'03 Sonic Blue, post: 4119770, member: 8510"] They recalled them when they were introduced around March 2004 and banned by SCCA. They were reinstated by SCCA around the first of July 2004. Tires sold since "should" be OK. Obviously, John's is not. In my experience, it is not unusual to be able to find the bond line in the tread face of the race tires that I've used. (I run cheap race rubber) I've never had one fail like the one shown. John, I've also run un-matched tires to "finish off" old ones. I subscribe to the philosophy that the tire is not worn out until the cord is showing. My first exception: I have a set of Nitto 555II Extremes that will be tossed before the cord sees the light of day. You should not have any problem introducing a new tire into a set of used ones. I plan to show up at RA in a couple of weeks with a new LF tire to go with 3 well used Avons. --Mike [/QUOTE]
