Hey.
First two punctures on a RR tire, so close together that repair shop says the tire could fail (though so far so good).
I bumped up against a curb yesterday, dang. Heard the rim squeak. Checked the tire and rim and found a sheared off piece of tire! THe rim was scraped up some. I was surprised the tire tore instead of a rub. I don't think the Tire and Rim ins. I bought will cover this - of course its a long weekend and I can't get to the dealer til Tuesday. Car is 15 months old.
Opinions? What is the usual spec/brand/model/quality of the stock tire for a GT 2016 AWD? It's a 16" alloy.
When I last asked at the dealer, he told me the tires were rated for 60K. Really? Which is on the low side, don't cha think?
Looking at replacing all tires now, just wanting to compare brands/rating etc.
Here's the damage:
Pat
