Kumho tires worn too soon

[starrider60]

4200 miles on the Kumho's and they are almost slick.
right side is down to the metal cord and outside tread is gone on the left. What gives? Has anyone had similar problems?

[starrider60]

make that 2400 miles. Something's wrong. Were they just bad rubber?

WOW.....Never heard of ANY Tire not lasting much, much longer than that.....

I bet that MM make for one classy trike. I've owned two MMs. Very beautiful bikes. <img src="images/smilies/poof.gif" border="0" alt="" title="poof" class="inlineimg" /> <img src="images/smilies/poof.gif" border="0" alt="" title="poof" class="inlineimg" />

Starider60,
PM sent.

This situation is DEFINITELY NOT "normal" by any means.
Apologies for the Issue and Assurances it will be addressed and rectified ASAP.

Any update on the tire issue?

[Carbon_One]

Has the wheel alignment been checked? With the tires wearing only on the edges it sounds like to me that you have a serious toe in or toe out wheel alignment problem.

hannigan is working with the installer to get the toe in corrected.

Perfect, how difficult would it be for installers to check it out before it goes out the door.

What's the difference between a mechanic and a parts installer?
