I bought tires here in October. Not even six months later, they are so dry rotted that they are not holding air. They were showing signs of dry rotting within a month of purchase. The tires were darker when bought but started lightening within a week or two of purchase as well. It seems they may have oiled them to hide what condition they were actually in. The four tires were not a matching set - they were two sets. If the paperwork had not gone missing when my apartment got ransacked a few weeks later, I would have taken the vehicle back up there and requested an equal exchange.
Dun Rite Tires claims to sell used tires in good condition, but they are doing something to expand the rubber to hide the fact that they are selling dry rotted products... which will actually accelerate the dry rotting process.
Update: I have called Dun Rite's locations about two or three times, and they will not work with me. The first time I called in November... about a week after the warranty expired - tires will NOT dry rot that badly within 2 to 3 months and it was about a month. Here's the thing... when someone treats the tires like that, it takes over 30 days on average to show that they are bad tires. They claim they do not do this, but the fact that both sets of tires were like this tells me otherwise. If it's not them, it's their suppliers, and I would think they would honor this issue.
If you want tires, go elsewhere... selling dry rotted tires that are treated to hide that they are not any good is not a way to keep your customer base. Tires should last longer than this... plenty of tread... completely dry rotted. I would almost call this a predatory practice - preying on those who cannot afford new tires by selling them bad tires! read more
