What 2004 Kzrv Sportsmen Sportster owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
While on vacation I had 2 tire separation problems with one resulting in a blowout with damage. These tires are nankang 235/80r16 were only 2 years old and about 4 thousand miles on them. These came new on my 2004 kz 40 ft 5th wheel trailer and had virtually no tread wear. There have been numerous other complaints on these tires.
Tire failure caused shocks to break off and tear. This mutilated and beat the sides of rv (nankang tire).
