I purchase four yokohama ascend tires at town fair tire in salem, nh on 07-10-12 . On 5/09/13 my tire blew I was pulling into a gas station and my tire brushed the curb and it actually split. I had to call roadside assistance and have my car towed and put a donut on it. I went back to town fair tire the next day and bought another tire because I did not have a warranty. (reason being- they were 30 day returns - so no warranty. So I had to buy another tire. Today 5/28/13 it happened again, the tire blew and ripped open. I once again called town fair tire and they said because I bought the tire new they would replace it for free. I don't trust these tires and I would like them all replaced.
