       Oh no not that same story AGAIN !  Those Yoko are becoming famous for 
doing the belt break bulge !  My advice, get rid of them and never use them 
again.  I've got the LTX's and have never had a problem with them is over 75,000 
km.  No off road experience though.  I keep on the highways out here in 
Eastern Canada !
