I bought a new Kia Rio, after just 300 kilometers of use a tire exploted when I was driving, I went to Kia dealer to report the incident, after days the Kia answer was that it was my fault maybe beacuse I drove with low pressure in that tire or I hit an edge or I hit a hole but none of those three things happened. In the pictures you can see how the cut of the explotion is aligned with a metallic part installed in the wheel. When explotion of tire occurred I was driving in a highway, this was a dangerous situation and my safety was in risk. Tire information: Brand: Nexen, model: Nblue hd, serial: Dot 8elx labr 4619, code: Nexoe306, description: 185/65R15 88H nblue
