Consumer Description

TIRES DID NOT FEEL RIGHT FOR OVER 6 MONTHS, WENT TO 3 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS UNTIL SOMEONE FINALLY REALIZED THAT TWO OF THE RIMS WERE BENT ONE IN FRONT AND ONE IN BACK, ON TWO OPPOSITE SIDES OF THE CAR. I WAS TOLD THAT I MUST HAVE HIT A POT HOLE, BUT THAT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE IF THE RIMS BENT WERE ON TWO DIFFERENT SIDES. AFTER LOSING THE BATTLE I PAID OVER $600 TO REPLACE THE RIMS. *AK
