Hey guys....

Im getting an allignment as we speak. Heres my issue. The guy at the shop (which is a really profesional place) told me that i have tire runout. I'm like WTF!!! Now, he's not trying to sell me new tires or anything, but he was just letting me know that 2 of my tires have runout!

Now this blows my mind being that these are brand new, with about 100 miles on them Falken Azenis. Is this common with these tires??? What can i do about the situation??? I definatly dont have the money to be repalcing tires now so im gonna have to deal with it. I guess its a factory defect, but i bought the tires about a year ago, but just havent used them until now.... I doubt theres is anything i can do...

Just looking for some suggestions.

For those who are not familiar with the term "runout", it's an out-of-round condition. It's described very well on this website.

I suggest contacting the dealer where you bought the tires, or your nearest Falken dealer, or Customer Service at Falken (800-723-2553 or technical@falkentire.com), to see if they can be replaced under warranty at no charge.

Yeah, i got to shoot them an email or a phone call.

Last night at the track they were definatly shaking at the top and at 90+mph.

I'll say this though. They really arent drag tires. They just werent doing it for me. I couldnt get them to stick for ****....

I have a set on my car. I have the same problem but on only two of the tires. So when it comes time to rotate them front to back I cant really because of the vibration it causes throught the steering wheel. So now my front tires are worn and need to be replaced.
