Just returned from Alaska, 11,039 miles to be exact. ...towed a Honda Accord. Noticed tires on the Accord are rough riding. 4,100 actual miles and 17,000 mIles tow. Now I've been told from my tire tech that all four tires are cupped due to being towed...tires only 16 months old. Accord has been towed total of 30,000 miles no problems. Last set of tires rode rough but I thought it was caused by age...these are B.F. Goodrich new tires. Guess I'll be buying tires...hmmm.
BF Goodrich tires have soft rubber. More likely to wear, especially if the Car was not correctly aligned. Ask your Tire tech what is different towing than driving?????? What does towing have to do with tire damage. The Auto is just following you. Doug
