Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Noticed both front tires wearing badly on the inside edge. at 14k miles, i rotated the tires. when i removed the front tires, i noticed the tire was hitting the strut assembly. there were visible rub marks on both front struts. now, at 20k miles i removed the tires for inspection. the front 2 tires had only been on for approx 6k miles (since rotation). both front tires were severely worn on the inside to the point that the tread had separated/split and you could see the inner construction of the tire! i'm afraid if i hadn't checked these tires when i did, there would have been a blowout on the highway which could have caused severe injury.*jb
