METEZLER ME 880 MT90B16 M/C TL I PURCHASED METZELER ME 880 TIRES. WITH 400 MILES ON THEM SIDE WALL STARTED CRACKING AND BULGING, MAKING THE MOTORCYCLE UNCONTROLLABLE. I TALKED TO SCOTT GRIFFIN AT METZELER AND THEY REPLACED THE TIRES. I DO NOT KNOW THE DATE CODE ON THE TIRE BECAUSE THEY TOOK THEM. THIS TIRE MODEL SHOULD BE CHECKED. THE FRONT TIRE WAS VISIBLY CHECKED AND THERE WAS A HUGE BUBBLE IN IT. THE REAR TIRE WAS VISIBLY CHECKED BUT NO BULGE YET AND THERE WAS ONLY 400 MILES ON THEM. *TR
