I have after market rims with sumitomo htr+ 225/40zr18 tires. On my way traveling to California from Louisiana my rear tire blew out causing my rim to crack and it also scrached up the lower right half of my car, it cost me $600 to replace the rim and tire and now I have a bubble forming in my front driver side tire I think that the company who makes this tire should refund me the money I spent to replace the rim and tire, fix the damage to my car, and also give me a replacement for the one with the bubble. Something needs to be done because im not the only one this has happened to my frind has the same exact tires and his did the same thing only he was at a stop light when it happened.these tires are not cheap and I still have to repaire the body damage. Thank you from a concered soldier of the army.

There is a grinding noise coming from the wheels. Took vehicle to dealer, and they stated that wheel bead broke loose from rim, causing tire to turn on rim. That caused grinding noise.
