uh your tyres are your responsibility.

Rotating them, checking pressure, tread depth etc. Take some personal responsibility.

Dont know abount the US but in UK theres 3 points (12 is a ban) and £1k fine per tyre for any problems.

Also, what mileage are these at? I seem to recall you had a lot of miles on the car as well. These are NOT long lasting tires.
