    I Bought these based on price and reviews and They were great for a Week and than the tread starting breaking chunks off and breaking across the tread grooves one worse than the other. The tire dealer wouldn’t replace they said it’s normal gravel damage despite 16 other tires not doing this, I’m a regional flatbed so I don’t spend allot of time on gravel so buying these cost me 3x as much as just buying Michelin or any brand better than BFG 284’s

    Hi Jose - I am wondering what tires these are that you are referring to with the separation. Are these the Bridgestone R283 or 284?
