It would give them a super bad rep if they said something like that and didnt honor it. If they said it, i think they will.

It sounds like he bought new tires.
So unless he purchased road hazard from the tire dealer, he's screwed.
The tire booklet thats with the owners manual only details the oem tires on the car.

dude they are stock tires. Evs come from the factory with yoko advans. And with 7k miles they should still be on the car for another 10-15k miles

this is just a bad case of luck, you stand no chance of getting them replaced, especially not by a dealership.

If you live life on the wild side, put a plug in the both wholes, although i dont think it will be such a great idea. But some people dont care. Otherwise, just buy new tires.

Too bad man, because the stock yokohama advans are great tires, although they wear rather fast because of their soft compound.

The tires are warrantied by the tire manufacture. Contact Yokohama or someone who sells Yokohama tires in your area.
