Damnit damnit damnit...Bought Kuhmo 4x ecsta's 10/31/11 I've put 11k miles on these tires. I have no rubbing issues. Drove to my parent's house during my lunch hour to see my Dad and eat lunch with him since he's in town. Noticed the car handling weird in his neighborhood, blamed it on the mix of loose gravel and rain. Went in, ate lunch, went back to my car and luckily walked to the other side and noticed the passenger front tire was COMPLETELY FLAT!!! inspected both front tires (back tires look great) and both have steel belts hanging out in the inside. The outside looks fine. We hooked up his compressor and the tire leaks air as fast as it fills up. I have no clue why these tires have prematurely died! Like I said, no rubbing issue, plus I'm not off smoking these bad boys with my whopping 130hp lol.
I have the extended warranty, bought them from Discount Tire, so the tires have a warranty of 40k. They should be replacing them for free, just sucks though. I'm wondering if there was a manufacturing error that caused the premature destruction.
