I am sharing with you a recall notice in case any member has Tyres on their vehicle can get their tyres replaced free.
Continental ProContact GX AO tyres for passenger cars.
Tyre size: 255/35R19 96H XL
The Department of Transport (DOT) serial number starts with: CP32 WMC9
This can be found on the sidewall of the tyre near the rim.
All date codes are affected.
I know we have no Continental tyres in our family
I also know all our tyres are both narrower and have a smaller rim diameter than that
.
Pretty sure somebody with 255/35R19's would have a clue about tyres …
It's not like they will be run on typical toyota or mazda without knowing ;)
Sure they do !
Sounds like the size that would run on a euro SUV. Theres a lot of euro suv owners that have more money than sense and are likely to have these tyres fitted but no idea they have them. Just asked the tyre shop to 'fit whatever'
What if I hold off getting a replacement? Drive it til it's bald then get new free tyres in like 4 years time?
Reasons the product is recalled
The steel belt edges may begin to separate, which can lead to partial or full tread loss in the tyre.
Yeh ok. I'll take them off and put in storage and get them replaced brand new when I sell my car so can advertise comes with brand new tyres.
"full tread loss in the tyre"
slick conversion?
.
For the mindless pagans that don't have a clue about 'what tyres they have ! You're wasting your time , sadly.
