TIRE TROUBLE WITH CHRYSLER 300

I AM HAVING TROUBLE KEEPING TIRES ON OUR 2005 CHRYSLER 300.
I HAVE HAD IT LESS THAT 1 AND 1/2 YEARS AND ALREADY HAVE PUT ON TWO
SETS. AND IT IS NOT BECAUSE OF ABUSE EITHER. THEY ARE JUST WEARING DOWN,
EVEN THE DEALER IS PERPLEXED WHY THIS IS HAPPENING, ANYONE HEARD OF
SIMILAR PROBLEMS?

 

You mention nothing about having the alignment angles checked? If the toe is
way out it will eat up tires.

Apparently, you are also experiencing difficulty with your "caps lock"
key.

 

if u have the contential tires there is a issue with these tires and there was
a tsb for this also

 

Why do you keep replying to me? read the post and reply to the correct
person!!!

 

Sorry about the capital letters before. yes,they are Continental tires
and i was told that there are limited manufactuers for the size of the
tire for my 300.

 

And still never mention anything about having the alignment done

 

Regular maintainence always done.VERY particular with my vehicle.
(regular rotation every 6000 miles) it was aligned 2 or 3 time in 26,000
miles. THE PROBLEM IS......that the tires are wearing down EVENLY (no
cupping or what so ever) to the point of not passing safety inspection.
in this case the tires were in the back. (and yes...Continental tires)
They are P215/65R17 and the dealer told me only certain manufacturers
make this size.
All work done at a chrysler dealership

 

Get rid of the Continental tires, they are junk tires

 

Try Michlen Hydroedge for best wear or Goodyear TripleTread for good snow
performance or Goodyear ComfortTread for good snow and ice performance.

Thank you all for the help. Maxpower wrote......"Get rid of the
Continental tires they are junk" I agree! I went one step future
though....I got rid of the car ! I traded it in on a Chevy Monte Carlo
SS.
Thanks again !!

 

Wow...out of the Frying Pan...
