Default 19" Denman Tires

I thought I would pass on some experience I have had with a set of 19" Denman Tires I purchased these tires about 2 months ago and have put about 1500 miles on them. I know I have what might be a slight camber problem on the drives side axel and do expect abnormal wear there. However the centers of both tires on the front will be bald in the next 1000 miles or so. I know the outside of the drivers side tire will wear more rapidly because of the camber problem but the tread already has white showing through…I guess this is part of the white wall coming through to the outside I have check the air pressure regularly and have always keep them near the max.

The 45 year old Wards Riverside tires that were on the front give much better service then the Denman tire. To say the least I am out over $300.00 for these junk tires and will have to cough up another $300.00 or so long before the summer is over. BTW the Firestones on the rear seem to be doing ok they have nearly 5000 miles on them and still look good.
