Tire size 225/45 R 14 Purchased four tires April 22, 2019 and had to replace one tire on August 5, 2021 due to not keeping air, which I wasn't told why. Then I was having the same problem with another tire and this time was shown what the tire looked like, which is splitting, separating on the inside wall. On October 23, 2022 ordered a new tire and had them check the remaining two tires and they were both splitting, separating on the inside wall as well, which I had to order two more tires October 27, 2022 and I still have plenty of tread left.

How to use these: a complaint is one owner’s report, filed voluntarily and published unverified. Patterns matter more than any single story. If several owners describe the same failure at similar mileage, put that system at the top of your pre-purchase inspection list. Back to the full 2016 Lexus Is200t verdict →
