Oh, no I think I'll have to watch it if I'm anywhere near an Avalanche. If one of those tires blows, then the thing will hit something and shatter into a million tiny pieces of plastic. I don't want to get hit with the shrapnel.
Did they issue ugly tires for that thing? You know to be consistent with the rest of the "truck".
I'm sorry. I'm not really one of those vehicle bigots. I just find this whole Avalanche thing funny!

LMAO. Know what brand tires they are? If they are firestone then firestone better be doing something before they say goodbye to the tire business.

....don't tell me that, I do the tire changes for the firestones. Goodyear wranglers are what I am putting on it. This could start to suck.

Don't blame the Goodyears. The tires probably just can't hold it together. I mean, if you were on such an abomination, would you be any better?
