## Discrepancy

AT TIRE CHANGE INSPECTION, THREE CRACKS WERE FOUND IN KEYWAY BOSSES.  THESE CRACKS ARE AT THE INBOARD END OF THE BOSSES.  WE ARE WORKING WITH THE MANUFACTURER TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE CRACKS.  SUBMITTER RECOMMENDS THESE AREAS BE INSPECTED WITH AN EDDY CURRENT MACHINE AT EACH TIRE CHANGE.
