I have 4 bridgestone insignia tires. Not sure of mileage but I will go back to the dealer on monday to confirm, however I will guess about 25k to 35k. The tread looks very good. I have steel wires coming out of the sidewall. There are about a dozens wires between 2" and 8" hanging out. I noticed it because you can hear the wires slapping the fender and tire well as rotation occurs. I hope the factory responds in a positive way, we will see.

After getting a flat tire, I bought two tires at ntb, waltham, ma to replace the flat and the old spare tire. The new tires (uni tiger paw) were put on the front of the car. The other 3 tires were rotated to the back and to the spare. I was also charged for a wheel alignment. Within 100 miles, as I was driving on the highway at 65 MPH, the front right wheel began making a loud thumping noise so I pulled off the highway and called aaa. The tire was fine, but it was on the verge of falling off. Aaa tightened it and checked all the other tires, which were fine, and I was on my way again. Apparently the lug nuts on the front right tire had not been tightened. This was a dangerous event due to human error. I am concerned about how frequently such mishaps occur and wanted to report it. I will also contact ntb to let them know of this serious and dangerous event.
