GOODYEAR EAGLE LS 2 ROF TIRES Complaints

MAJOR ISSUES WITH A SPECIFIC TIRE. NEW 5 SERIES FROM BMW, IF GET 19" WHEELS COME WITH SUBSTANDARD TIRES - GOODYEAR EAGLE LS2 RUN FLATS. THEY BUBBLE AND FAIL AT AN ALARMINGLY HIGH RATE. LOST ONE TIRE WITHIN A MONTH OF PURCHASE. GOT RID OF THEM BEFORE THEY COULD CAUSE ME ANY MORE PROBLEMS. *TR

GOODYEAR EAGLE LS2 TIRE DEVELOPED BUBBLE AFTER LESS THAN 2000 MILES. TIRE IS ON NATIONAL BACKORDER AND IS THE ONLY TIRE APPROVED FOR THIS CAR. I SEE THIS AS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR BOTH THE CAR AND THE TIRE SINCE I HAVE TO EITHER ORDER NON-RECOMMENDED TIRES (THIS IS THE ONLY RUN-FLAT TIRE IN THE OE SIZE) OR DRIVE ON A DANGEROUS TIRE. *TR

OVER A PERIOD OF 5 WEEKS AND 2300 MILES I HAVE EXPERIENCED SIDEWALL DEGRADATION (BLISTER) FOUR DIFFERENT TIMES ON THREE TIRES AFTER TRAVERSING BROKEN PAVEMENT/POT HOLES AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 25 AND 60 MPH. SINCE THIS SPECIFIC TIRE IS ONLY SOLD ON 2011 BMW 535 AND 550 ALL-WHEEL DRIVE MODELS WITH OPTIONAL SPORT PACKAGE EQUIPMENT, THERE ARE PROBABLY RELATIVELY FEW PEOPLE WHO OWN THE TIRE. THEREFORE, I REQUEST THAT YOU BE ESPECIALLY VIGILANT IN INVESTIGATING ANY POTENTIAL PROBLEM SINCE YOU WILL UNDOUBTEDLY RECEIVE FEW FAILURE REPORTS. BECAUSE I PERIODICALLY CHECK THE TIRE AIR PRESSURE I DETECTED THE PROBLEM BEFORE IT RESULTED IN CATASTROPHIC TIRE FAILURE. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN EXACERBATED BECAUSE THE TIRES ARE ON BACK ORDER AND ARE NOT READILY AVAILABLE IN THE UNITED STATES. I HAD TO WAIT OVER TWO WEEKS TO REPLACE THE INITIAL FAILURES AND AM CURRENTLY WAITING TO REPLACE ANOTHER. *TR
