Really not trying to cause an argument here. But thought some may be interested in the pictures in this thread http://www.astraownersclub.com/vb/showthread.php/729676-Anyone-seen-anything-like-this
It would also seem tyres cause arguments on other forums aswell.
Please chaps no arguments it is just to see the tyre damage.

Had similar happen to my first Granada. Made quite a mess of the rear valance when it failed at about 85 ::)

Was it a remould? or a defective cheap and nasty? :-\ I thought the latter and too be honest I can't be bothered to read the thread again! :)

As others have said typical of a delaminating problem as seen usually on poor remoulds. Not read all the thread though - is this a remould on a "new" car? Unlikely I would have thought, but issue still delamination.

Thread suggests a 2nd hand car bought from a branded dealer, tyre in question is Infinity, so dealer or previous owner has put on budget tyre.
