Alright so my car unfortunately came with the Potenzas and they are nowhere near worn but these tires do not have any traction what-so-ever!!! god forbid its raining! I have tires for life with my dealer so i was wondering if anyone has had any similar situations. they wont put thae same ones on will they? and since they truely are bad is there any chance of them replacing the tires before their time?

 

Are these the Potenza RE-92's? If so, I have them on my xA, and yes, they are total junk.

 

Any chance of your dealer replacing a tires before it's time when you have a tire-for-life deal? Not really. As long as you have your 2/32" of tread, your tire is "spec".

Is there any chance your dealer will put something different on your car when your tires are worn? Maybe, but chances are it will be worse - the dealer is gonna stick the cheapest thing they can on there.

 

thats what i was scared off....and yes they are the RE-92s...worst tires i've ever driven on

 

the stock potenza's are like 50-70 bucks more than the MUCH better rated Avon Tech M550's check tire rack. however your dealer is probably in some sort of deal to get potenza's for tC's. if they were paying retail for them u'd probably have a good chance of getting better/cheaper tires, but i doubt theey are.

 

Go burn 'em down like ZPI did in that video.... lol.
