Thought these tires were supposed to be good. I just got home from leaving work and the whole damn sidewall separated from the tire and fucked it all to hell. Good thing i got the warranty. The tires prob had like 600 miles on them.

Where do they stamp the production date on the tire? Calling them right now to get my replacement.

Look for the dot number on the sidewall near the rim edge. the last few number's should read like this- 4209 or something like that. The first 2 #'s are the week they are made and the last 2 are the year.

That was my first thought too, they just came out with that tire.

I have the T/A KDW IIs and couldn't be happier:happy: (Make sure to get the IIs which is the 'New' tread pattern)

They hook well in the dry, and do fine in the rain. They only issue is they only come in 18" sizes for F-bodys (Which is a non-issue as you've already got 18s).

I run 275/18/35s with no issues.
