18850 miles on my Goodyears. Got a screw in my right rear tire. Dealership getting me 2 new rear tires tomorrow. Tire warranty looking like a it was a good buy. They may cover both, but definitely the one with the screw in it.

Ahhhhh dude, I feel your pain...just had it happen to my truck tire with 7k miles on it. Got it plugged. Let's drink a beer to each other. Cheers.

At 18850 miles you got all your moneys worth out of those tires anyway . Your new nickname should be LIGHTFOOT .

They said too close to the sidewall to be repaired. Warranty turned out to be bullshit. Tread anywhere on the tire below 3/32" and the tire is considered by the company providing the warranty to be bald. The lowest point on the tire brand new is 4/32". Now I have to try to get back the money I paid for the warranty. Probably not going to happen.
