Consumer Description

DRIVING MY 4 MONTH OLD NEW 2012 RAM 1500 4X4 IN MID MICHIGAN AFTER OUR FIRST MEASURABLE SNOW FALL. ON THE WAY TO MY RAM DEALER FOR A SCHEDULED OIL CHANGE IN (FOUR WHEEL DRIVE) AT 35 MPH. SLID RIGHT BY THE DEALER ON THE SNOW, TIRES LOST ANY AND ALL ABILITY TO CONTROL VEHICLE. SPOKE TO SERVICE WRITE UP GIRL ABOUT IT, AND TALKED TO MY SALESMAN ALSO VOICING MY CONCERNS. TOLD THEM THESE ARE ABSOLUTELY THE WORST TIRES I HAVE EVER DRIVIN ON THE SNOW WITH BAR NONE. SLID INTO MY SONS CAR WHEN I RETURNED HOME.....NOT HAPPY WITH THESE TIRES AT ALL. WHY WOULD THEY MARKET THESE FOR A FOUR WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLE? *TR
