well yeah... i did it.. i bought a set (4 tires low profile) for i think it was 150.00 all together for 18" well they lasted awhile like 3 MONTHS.!! i know that they wasnt brand new and all but there a good brand in tires .. well sunday i noticed that my car was driving a little werid, i looked at my tires and noticed that one of them looked like it needed some air in it.. well yeah i put it off kept checking it .. last night while going to walmart i noticed that my was driviing even more bad.. was thinking that maybe my lug nuts where loose or something .. had christopher check it and they was fine... then i just thought that i was just going crazy or something ... well i went to work this morning and on my way there i smelled rubber.. well i wanted untill i got off work to look at it and all i stopped at a gas station to finally put air in my tire and well then i noticed that the tire was lookin like it was coming off the rim.. im like WTF ive never seen anything like this ... then i start to put air into the tire thinking well maybe it will go into place when i put more air into it ( but thinking its not that flat to be doing that) so then i take my hand and feel in the back then i notice that is not even closed... well i put my spare on and everything ....... but i will never buy tires from them again specailly for my fc.......

 

i dont see how that has anything to do with the pawn shop...........looks like your own fault

 

its just dry rot. It happens

 

There was nothing wrong with the tires, besides haveing a leak. You wore the **** out of it by procrastinating. Your rim was eating the side wall up without air pressure in the tire.

two of the other tires that i have also have something wrong with them thou also.. they have bubbles on the side wall

 

what is the good name brand on the tires? the only problem i see with the one is that it was driven on low pressure and wore the **** out of the side wall, yes procrastination killed that tire.

 

Gebus, wonder how much new tires are gonna cost.....18's are great....till you have retire them....ESP if you want something in teh sub 500 treadware rating

No offense..but looks like operator error to me also.

 

The bubbles in the sidewalls (knots) are either manufacturer defect or improper inflation of the tires. I bought some tires off tirerack once, 3 of the 5 total I bought had the knots. Had to buy a fifth tire because one of them had an air leak no one could find... I had to put air in it every other day. Thought it might be the wheel, but a different brand of tire had no trouble with it.

Seems to me, when you buy budget low-profiles, you're asking for trouble. Learned the hard way.

$18 for something you should check when you fill up your gas anyways.
