    Lifetime sounds good. I bet your definition of lifetime and theirs are different. Not saying they are just saying I hope it's what they advertised to you

    Good Luck make sure you read the fine print on that LIFETIME warranty deal that is usually dealer only service and you better have all your records with you...... I know because I worked for several dealers over the last couple years with this scam.......... They will deny claims for not rotating tires they look for any little thing to not pay the claim.
