And pep boys just told me that I need entire new set. Had road hazard insurance and they say there's nothing they can do.

BFG should give you some kind of prorated warranty if you want to get another set of their 20K mi tires for a small discount.

Are they worn out or what? If they aren't bad then do what 90% of people would do and ignore their advice.

Do you rotate your tires?

Tires are warranties up to a certain % of tire tread. Sounds like PepBoys doesn't want to handle the warranty paperwork...which is a mf btw.

eta: if you failed to keep tires properly rotated (every 5-6k miles) then you're effed.

You should get 70,000 out of them. You must be dense.

Post a pic, I'd like to see the wear, if it's not a mechanical issue causing the wear then BFG will pro rate them out, which brand of BFG? If you need help let me know.

What kind of car? If they're performance tires you'll only get about 25k out of them.

You probably got some mud in your tire.
