Lionshead tires too unsafe for public safety. After using the 5th wheen three times (short distances) over the past year, several of the tires have formed bubbles posing a safety concern for my family and others on the highway. After reading up on this manufacturer, these tires need to be recalled and pulled from the shelves! They do not have a warranty for mileage, which poses a huge scam racket for customers. It's apparent they are aware of their sub-par product, therefore issuing a 12 month warranty even if you don't use your rv or have only put 100 miles on their dangerous tires. When is the federal safety agency going to do something about this? Other persons have had actual damage to their vehicles and have been injured!
