Thanks for the info. I have 3 yr old Coursers on my truck, and all 4 of them have that bulge. Trouble is, I can't get that safercar.gov web sight to open up.

I had the same problem but a little digging finally yielded the link to register. I am buying the Dick Cepek Fun Country II's so I am glad this came up. The tires identified were manuafactured back in 2006 but you never know how old the tires are when you buy them from a dealer/vendor. I will definitely be checking these tires out when I pick them up tomorrow.

Try this link and see if it works.

I barely get them to 90, and if I do it's for a shot period of time. What the hell is a tire pull anyway?

I've got a brand new set of Procomp Extreme ATs 305/65/17s. Should I be concerned?

Nah, according to the Cooper link I added a few posts ago, the tire size to be concerned with is 285/75/16. Besides. this was back in 2005/2006 so you would be pretty safe (at least in my opinion). I am picking up some Dick Cepek FCII's tomorrow but the size is 33x12.5 so I ain't skerred!
