Consumer Description

I WAS WONDERING ABOUT ANY RECALLS OR COMPLAINTS ON THE SUMITOMO TOUR PLUS LSV 215/50R17 TIRES. I PURCHASED A VEHICLE 2 MONTHS AGO THAT HAS A SET OF THESE AND BOTH FRONT TIRES HAVE HAD TO BE REPLACED DUE TO WHAT APPEARS TO BE THE CENTER BELT IN THE TIRE BEING BROKEN. BOTH TIRES WERE VISIBLY WARPED AND YOU CAN SEE WHERE IT SINKS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TIRE. UNFORTUNATELY THE CARS WARRANTY DOESN'T COVER THE TIRES AND I'M HAVING TO PAY TO REPLACE THEM SO JUST LOOKING FOR ANSWERS OR PROOF OF A FAULT SO I MIGHT CAN HAVE THEM REPLACED
