Bought these tires from a memeber. was not told about this gouge in the tire i guess must not of felt it was a big deal but it worrys me

this is a 245/45 azenis

PICS BELOW

 

No, safety feature. Always air to the side of life.

 

err even.

But I agree, give them back.

 

Whoops! Somehow failed to mention a big gash in the tire.......

Send that crap back....

 

ive sent him a PM. im hoping he works with me if not i guess ill just have to file a claim with paypal

 

Shipping damage?

In any case, I wouldn't install those on any of my cars.

 

No way would I drive on a tire with a gouge in the sidewall like that. Not safe.

 

not from shipping cause it was covered by packaging. this looks like to me he hit a curb or something

this damage was for sure prior to shipping

 

Stay off it.

 

better pics

 

That tire could easily disintegrate with hard driving.

 

well seller is basically telling me to shove it and that he isnt at fault and doesnt have any obligation here

 

I wouldn't be surprised if that chunk was ripped out by the fenders.

Those things were rubbing like crazy. Look at the circumferential grooves in the edge of the tread blocks. About 1/4" up from the triangle. Goggle image some azenis and you'll see those are supposed to be solid blocks all the way to the sidewall.

 

^HAHA, Paypal wont see it that way. File a claim with pics if possible. you'll likely get your money back.

 

yea im giving him a chance to make it right but if not i will file
