235/50 r 17. Seriously horrible groove wandering to the point that I feel extremely unsafe to drive. I'm guessing it's all four tires but, I'm only allowed to pick one. It happened the first day after purchasing the vehicle on 5/24/22. I put more money down on the car because the tires were fairly new. Now they have to be replaced because they are dangerous. They must be recalled!.
