The Bridgestone T30 EVO 180/55/17 simply blew out. NO notice. The tire has approximately 2500 miles on it. It was properly inflated at 42 PSI as per Yamaha. I was going 55 miles per hour in a 55 mph zone. I walked the road where the tire failed and there was NOTHING in the road that I had run over. I have contacted Bridgestone and am awaiting their packet to come in the mail so I can mail them the tire back. I can send pics if need be.

Is 2 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2019 and 2023, roughly 0 a year, which is fewer than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
