#7 of 14 Excessive tire wear- 2006 Trailblazer ext by sparty2629

Jun 23, 2008 (11:24 am)

I found out that there was a recall in 2006 for the Trailblazer ext ls regarding the tire pressure that was inaccurately marked on the vehicle. I was never informed. I have turned in my Trailblazer, because of the gas mileage, but they are coming at me for excessive wear on three of the tires. Could this wear be caused by the overinflation of the tires? I didn't even have the car for 2 1/2 years and they say the tires are bald! Anybody have a similar problem and how did you deal with it? Thanks

Time has nothing to do with it. How many miles are on the tires?

Well, without knowing the model tire and it's ratings, that does sound premature. Had the tires been rotated regularly?

Have a 99 blazer and I need new tires. Do some off roading while hunting but not much. Tire barn had recommended a Goodyear wrangler but I am not sure those are really that good. Any recommendations?

#14 of 14 Are the 265 45 18 good for 99TB? by black99tb

I have 1999 Trailblazer, i'd like to install 265 45 18 wheel and tires. Is that ok? im looking for looks and handling.
 
Im also get a sneaky noise from the rear suspension, could it be the bushings from the leaf springs and/or the leakages bushings of the sway bar?
 
Thanks.
Jim
