Found small buldge on sidewall of Bridgestone RF at less than 10K miles when car went in for first servicing. They now say I can only get 1/2 price on tire replacement ($388) because it was > 5K miles and I would have got nothing if over 10K mi, which it is now. They admit it was a defect in tire construction, but I can't even have the same deal LATER, IF the bulge gets bigger and the tire fails so it will cost 100% to replace.
Comments?
I want to go non-RF ASAP. Had the car 1 year, 10k miles. No other complaints about tires.
