I've had to return to my dealer when the tires on my 2005 TL showed excessive wear - almost smooth after only 11,000 miles. They checked it out and said that high performance tires wear faster than regular tires. They put four new tires on and charged me for one. Well guess what? I now have 9,000 miles on the new tires and they are almost bald. Help!

acura has a new service bulletin they dont want you to know about. it is for excessive tire wear on the newer tl's. under 15k you get new tires, a four wheel alignment and possibly new rear bump stops. acura covers a percentage of the tires based on mileage. good luck!

none of these new tl's come aligned right from the factory. they even had a bad batch of these tires in 04. i would rec. a different brand also. the stock tires are junk!
