Tires with traction rating a, temperature rating B, and wear rating 740 with mileage warranty of 80,000 miles had to be replaced after only 38,407 miles. Tires had poor traction and tread on outside of tires was worn to 2/32", but not on inside. Tires were always kept at recommended pressure, rotated regularly, kept balanced and vehicle alignment was kept in good standing. Tire dealer recommended keeping the tires at 40 psi for more even tire wear and to make the tires last longer, however the vehicle recommends the tires be at 33 psi (front) and 35 psi (rear) for cold weather.
