Vredestein Tires: Avoid at all costs

These tires were purchased along with the wheels. For one, there was an understanding at the time of purchase that Vredestein would cover any road hazard issues, which they are now not honoring (receipt never showed :angry: ). Two, i had a second tire begin cracking on the sidewall (pictures below) which they are not covering, and they are trying to pass it off due to road hazard and underinflation. Underinflation is not the issue, or the tire would be sliced (i check these tires once a week cause they seem to not hold air anyways; tire pressure is never below 38 lbs.). This is clearly a manufacturing defect, which they aren't covering! I am posting this as a warning, and it is up to you to make the ultimate decision. This is just my personal experience, with which i am very displeased. The problem is not with the company i bought the wheels from, but with Vredestein tires. I have never had this many problems with a set of tires in my life!




(I apologize for the picture quality)
