“I purchased 4 new tires for my 2004 Nissan 350Z, they are the falken pro g5 sport a/s tires p225/45r18 on the front. 245/45/r18 on the rear on 2/06/19 the mileage in was 16,292. On 1/15/20 I took the car out and the car was bouncing all over the road, I took it back to discount tires in las vegas nevada on that same day and they said it was the balance of the tires. When the technician tried to balance the tires he said they are off by over 1 ounce. Another tech came and tried to balance the tires and found a bulge on all 4 tires and opted to replace them all,I only had 69 miles on the tires! …”

“2004 Nissan 350Z, front tires roar while driving down road. Took vehicle in for service and the service manager says we need new tires and it will cost $650. I stated, this is a new car and we didn't do anything to wear the front tires out. He says to call Nissan. Now I am finding out that this is an on-going problem with these cars and Nissan has not addressed it (yet). We cannot afford to by new tires every year.”
