Well when i bought it i didn't know as much as about the car as i do now but it had coopers on it but when I was in kentucky test driving it the roads were absolutely awful. I guess my question was more aimed at are cooper xeons junk and if so what tire do you run and do you see this happing on your tires. Ill take a picture of the tires on it now they have less then 12000 miles on them and the back tires look great but the fronts have the same bald spots forming I was told by my uncle this happens when the belts break in the tire so ultimately Im looking for a better tire that is less likely to have this happen. He isn't into cars and only has trucks so he couldn't point in direction. The car is getting aligned while its in the shop.
