Consumer Description

I AM THE OWNER OF A 2006 NISSAN 350Z COUPE. MY CAR CAME STOCK WITH BRIDGESTONE POTENZA RE050A TIRES, WHICH HAVE A TREADWEAR RATING OF 140. THESE STOCK TIRES LASTED 22,000 MILES, WHICH IS IN LINE WITH MY EXPECTATIONS. I REPLACED THEM WITH THE HIGHER TREADWEAR RE-11 TIRES, WHICH HAVE A TREADWEAR RATING OF 180. THESE TIRES HAVE COMPLETELY WORN OUT AFTER ONLY 5,500 MILES. I FEEL BRIDGESTONE HAS A FAULTY RUBBER MIXTURE OR ELSE THERE IS FRAUD IN THEIR TREADWEAR METHODOLOGY. I HAVE NOT CHANGED MY DRIVING HABITS OR EVER GONE RACING IN ANY MANNER WITH THESE NEW TIRES. THE RE-11S NEED TO BE INVESTIGATED FOR ACCURATE TREADWEAR. *TR
