Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The 15" wilderness that came stock with this forester had to be replaced at approximately 29,800 miles. i took it in for a tire rotation and les schwab informed that they could not rotate the tires as they had to be replaced due to extreme wear. those 15" tires should have lasted at least another 30,000 miles. i think that all wilderness tires regardless of size should be recalled as they are definitely a defective tire.*ak( dot number: )
