2011 TSX Tires Cupping

Acura dealership told me my rear tires are cupping and feathering. I have the original Michelin Pilot tires that came with the 2011 Acura TSX. Should I concern myself with some sort of warranty on these tires?

The dealership told me I have to replace them. Is there anything better I can be looking at that costs between 100 to 170 dollars? I want to replace all 4 so they wear evenly.

I don't think the guy who owned the car before me really rotated them properly.
Thanks in advance!

I have the same question, except for ours is an 09 with 100k. The inside tread on the rear winter tires is cupped. The middle and outside is fine and so are the fronts.

Is it time for new rear struts?

I would just get new tires and not worry about bothering yourself with the hassle of warranty. sounds like they were not taken care of properly, or it was not really the tire at fault.

as far as tires go, I plan on putting some Toyo P4+'s or the ultra z900, I think its called, also by toyo

Could also benefit from a wheel alignment if you're having tire wear issues and are investing in a set of new tires.

There is a rear adjustment on one of the bars. Get 4 wheel alignment.
