Have the wife's CR-V at the tire place to get the snow tires taken off and the all-seasons put back on. Tire place calls and says they can't mount two of the all-seasons because one of them has a "chunk missing" from the bead, and the other tire's bead is breaking down. The tires are about 3 years old and haven't been used in the winter, they're stored in bags in the garage during the winter. So I haven't seen the tires yet, I suppose it's possible a rodent decided to eat part of the bead, else a chunk is missing due to their incompetence as they're the ones who have been changing them out.
Furthermore, the guy says the two 'good' tires have more than half tread, so I'd only need two new tires. On an AWD vehicle. That sounds like more of a difference between old and new tread depth than an AWD system would be psyched about.
It all sounds sketchy AF to me so I told them to leave the snow tires on and we'd be picking it up today. Costco it is, I guess.
Truly, I don't know much about tires. But this just isn't passing the smell test for me. Tire beads breaking down in 3 years? Chunks missing? What do you think?
