My vehicle is at 30k miles and the front 2 tires are showing signs of a huge tire quality issue. They are Bridgestone Alenza tires. Looking online this appears to be a huge common problem. The outside 1/4 of the tire tread has chunks missing that are roughly 1/2"long x 1/2" wide x 1/8" deep spots. This kind of wear pattern appears to be around the whole tire circumference and on both tires.
