tire problem, anyone?

I rescently got a flat that couldn't be fixed do to the tread. It was my frony driver-side Yokahoma. The tread was bald, but all three other tires still look very new. The tire had only been on there for about 2 months. Anyone else know of a similar problem, or of a resolution so I don't have to keep buying new tires.

Late,

Did you check your alignment (ie Toe and camber)?

Yep, it's all been checked. Just wondering (I'm thinking it's just because I feel a little more h/p when turning to the left and I thought that might me it) Just wondering if anyone knew of anything similar.

If your alignment is/was good, then it could be you had a bad (missshaped) tire? I'd ask the manufacture to take a look at it and give advise on why it had worn differently than the others. They may be able to tell with "good" photos of the tires?
