Last year I had a pair of Goodyear F1's fitted to the rear of my Cerb. and have done less than 10k on them. I was under my car the other day and noticed that one of the tyres was starting to split yikes I have had to buy a replacement whilst my faulty tyre is sent back to Goodyear for analysis, and then hopefully a refund.
The tyres are run at the recommended pressure as said to me by a dealer. 24psi.
Here's some pics for you to see.




The tyre had spilt on the INSIDE edge of the wheel, so had I not been under the car I would never have known the danger.
The split goes approximately 95% of the war around the tyre

My nearside front F1 had a similar split between the kerb protector and rim, again on the inside so I didn't notice until I had if off to get at the battery.

Now I have two new fronts and it transformed the handling.

Out of interest were they GSD2s or 3s? I have 2s on the front of my Chim and my girlfriend has 3s all round on her MGTF.
Will certainly be checking them tonight!!!
