Since it's under warrantee, I'll get the dealer to replace them. I expect they won't use a set of higher quality aftermarkets if I brought them, right?
Most likely your tires if you're running scorchers, now that they've feathered a little bit.

Yep, factory rubber. I was planning on going to Night Dragons, but was hoping to at least get more then a year out of these! Oh well.

Run them until they're wore out! Just humm because of the tread voids like a mud tire on a truck. I'd highly suggest the night dragons as well.

Yep. Had the ND's on my FXD and loved them. Almost had the dealer put them on when I took delivery but I figured I'd be taking it easy during break in anyway and just haven't done it yet. Soon.
