“I have had to replace my tires every 9 months and rotate them every 3 weeks. Finally, I asked my tire shop why. He said the way this Dodge Charger was built, the tires are at an angle so they wear unevenly, which also makes it wear faster. I thought I was being fed a story, so I took it somewhere else. The told me the same exact thing. This is very expensive and dangerous. I'm just waiting for a tire to blow out on the highway.”
