So I went to the dealer today for my 11xxx maintenance and the service guy told me I need to change my tires already? I'm pretty sure I don't drive THAT violently for the tires to be wore down already? Was quoted $1500~ something to change them. That's quote is just off the charts.

Any opinions? And what new tires should I get? ... I'm thinking probably Toyos

-- yes, I looked in the forums for a thread like this but didn't really find anything... though if you have time to search more, thanks!

 

you get what you pay for... im thinking of getting Kuhmo for my 19" oem

 

take some pictures of your tires. especially the inner part of the tread.

also for 1500 you can get some pretty crazy tires like pilot sport 2's or something.

 

I needed to replace my OEM 19s at about 15k miles. I spent about $1k on tires.

 

Welcome to the club. I get 7-10,000 out of my rears and my fronts feather like crazy. The Coupes weakest link is tires, then paint. I'm on my 4th set of tires (all paid for by the dealer) after 20,000 miles. The factory set counts as the 1st set.

 

Visualfusion,

Be sure to have a proper balance for your new tires/wheels. I would suggest having an alignment done, as well. If you encounter bumps, dips, poor road surface conditions, etc. quite frequently, you will need to have your alignment done more often. One of the major causes for premature tire wear is a poor alignment.

how do you get all your tires paid for by the dealer?

 

I have complained about the tires with Infiniti Consumer Affairs after my first 7,000 miles of ownership. Since then I have kept records and constantly placed claims for all my tires. The dealer I believe has put them in as "good will". One dealer wouldn't do it for me, so I went to another a little further away and got the job done. So far so good, but the tires still wear out.
