Anyone have any advice on avoiding this - other than avoiding pot holes of course? This is the third tire ruined in the last year due to the same issue. Two Michelins and one Bridgestone. All in the rear. I try to keep the suspension in comfort mode at all times to give it as much give as possible but it still happens. Hard to imagine this as a daily driver going forward if I'm having to replace multiple tires a year.
Nothing really to help this. You need to Avoid. My GTR is on a 25 tire so Avoiding is a major thing!!! Get her a truck?
