Bought a set of Michelin Pilot Sport A/S about 9 months ago. Noticed low pressure on one today and found yet another nail in the tread. That makes 3 out of 4 to pick up a nail that perforated full depth of tread, belts, etc. While there's construction around, my other 2 cars, with different brands of tires, don't seem to have this problem. Is it possibly the tires are overly susceptible? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Fortunately, I purchased road hazard coverage and so far no additional out of pocket expenses, aside from gas and time to get repairs. Unfortunately, my city is one big construction site. And it's supposedly broke - they're looking to increase sales tax to allegedly improve roads, though all past increases ear-marked as such have simply gone into general slush fund to be frittered away without reconciliation. Anyway, are Bridgestone Turanza LS-V hi-po enough to suffer same consequence? Just put a new set on other car.
