Tyres Failure Again - 7000 Km

[Bosnjo]

I've already posted tyres failure at 3000 km at my Avensis 1.8 VVTi 2005.

At 3000 km three of four tyres got oval.

Bridgestone TURANZA ER30 205/55-16

I took the car to my dealer and they took it to the Bridgestone dealer who changed all four tyres free of charge, same type (car was 3 months old).

It went well, untill few days ago when on the freeway at 160km/h I felt the same kind of vibration again. I have lifted front of the car, one side at the time, let the wheel roll and saw exactely the same thing I've seen 4 month ago. Tyres are oval again at the front. I got so angry that had no nerv to put the back wheels at the front to do the test with them. I've hit no bump or hole or so.

What is going on???????? Anybody with the same experience???????

Is that kind of tyre wrong for the weight of my car?????

Pressure is always as sugested in the book.

I'm thinking of changing the type, or even a brand of tyres.

Please, reply suggestions and experience.

Thanks

A lot of people are complaining the same about Michelin. They say when you buy new tyres, simply look at them -- thrt're so oval that it's apparant just by looking.

A lot of people think the suggested 2.2 bar is too low. I have mine at 2.45 and it's certainly not too high. (and stops the car wandering)

I have same tyres fitted to my UK spec car, which has now now nearly 7000 miles with absolutely no problem at all. Are tyres manufactured locally? Maybe thats the problem?

No, they are imported and when I got the car it arrived from UK with the set of tyres from there

[Mkuk0]

Probably the same as mine then, what about the set that were fitted after 3000km?

Are your shock absorbers ok?

Done suspention test already, 100%

2nd set of tyres imported from Germany

Who has the other brand of tyres, quite, good handling???

Just had new 16" alloys fittet to car, along with Dunlop SP Sport 2000E.

Car is a lot quieter than when it was fitted with Bridgestone Turanzas. Also seems to hold the road better now.

Thanks michelangelo, now those will be an option when I decide to change them.
