Firestone recall

Bridgestone has again recalled tired but this time they are on the Xs. If you have a 00=03 X with steeltex tires then got over to your dealer. Does not say why they are being recalled. About 80,000 Xs are affected.

There are "many" mentions of this over the last month or so. Many X owners already have their new tires and the debate has shifted to what are the best replacements.

Search for Firestone and you should find.
