| Tire tread separation on the front two tires after less than two years. cupping on the back two tires and possible tire tread separation even after proper rotation. tires were sold to me by don olsen tires plus of north woodland boulevard, deland, florida, and were returned to them and consequently replaced. they should have notified you of the dot # of those tires and that there were inherent defects. i am unsure of the actual dot #, as i got that from the replacement tires, sorry. the rest is correct.*ak | |||
