On a recent long distance road trip daddy Dave's truck developed quite a shimmy and a shake along the way back. After closer inspection to was discovered that two the the tires had split radials which caused the tires to develope a hump and uneven surfaces, this made for a roof ride. However this was not the first time this happend right before the trip was taken one of the front tires had already split but this was fixed prior to the trip. Daddy Dave credits it too poor tire quality, three out of the four tires had split radials all with a week of each other. The brand "Nixon" was very disappointing in the longevity of the tires and would not be recommended.
After a trip to the tire store and an empty wallet, 4new tires were put on the chariot, finally that smooth ride was achieved, too bad it wasn't present for the all so long road trip.

The ride was a bit rough.
Holy cow, I have never seen tires do that. Thank heavens they did not rip through the rubber.
I just put a new set of tires on my car also. They were nearly bald and way overdue.
