Dose anybody use BF Goodrich TA Radials on there Mustang? If so, have you had
any problems with them? like the Tread coming off the tire? I took my Babe out for
a cruise yesterday and @ 70 Mph the Tread came off my right front tire? and caused
a lot of Damage to my front fender and front of my car and totally Screwed up
my day. Has anybody heard of this happening?

I've had that happen to tires in general. How old are the tires? Look ud the date stamps molded in the sidewall. Even newly bought tires off the shelf can be several years old.

Never had the tread come off a BFG ,but i have had them crack and split in the treads . They are supposed to have a new compound now from what i was told.

I had a rear tire delaminate while on the interstate with a trailer! After I got it stopped and changed, the tire still held pressure with just the steel belts showing. When I got the car out of the body shop, I found a football shape and size bulge in the other rear tire. I think it was related to being parked part of the year.

SO - Please check the other tires or just replace the rest to be sure. Everybody knows what happens when a front tire on an Explorer does this. It is not any one brand.
