Actually Henry, almost $300!!!!! I just checked tire rack and they were $280! Do you guys think there is a warranty for this type of thing? I only have about 4K miles on them, if that!!!

There is a warranty
There is a warranty, it is called a road hazard warranty. It is an additional purchase made at the time that you buy the tires usually for around %12 of the price of the tire.

yeah - i should have taken advantage of the road hazard option. the reason why i was reluctant is because i ordered them on tirerack.com versus a retail store....
