PER OTHER COMPLAINTS I ALSO HAVE VAIL SPORT ST LH 99 TIRES ON MY 40 FT 10,0000 LB 5TH WHEEL CAMPER AND THE MANUFACTURE IS REPLACING THE ONE TIRE SHOWING SIDEWALL CRACKS AS HAVE ALL OTHER COMPLAINTS BUT REFUSES TO REPLACE THE REMAING 3 THAT HAVE THE SAME DOT DATE CODE AS THE ONE THEY ARE REPLACING SINCE THEY SHOW NO ISSUES. ITS A MATTER OF DISTANCE AND TIME BEFORE THEY FAIL AND THE MANUFACTURE IS PLAYING WITH MY FAMILIES SAFETY. I'M AM CONCERNED AS A CONSUMER THAT SINCE THESE TIRES ALL WENT ON TOGETHER THE REMAINING 3 TIRES PRESENT A BIG SAFETY ISSUE TO ME.
