Forte

  • 19,500 miles
I needed to take my car in to the mechanic to repair a tire that had a nail in it. While repairing the tire, I asked him to also check the tread of the tires. He preceded to tell me that the treads were still good, but what concerned him was the tread separation, cracking, and dry rot that the tires had. He said they definitely need replaced but not because of tread. He told me to look in to it because he felt they were defective.
