Never had Nexen and thanks for the heads up
Had 2 sets of Michelins on the 08 Ram and did a good job, put some Toyo's on this last time and like them even better (12K so far)

It is true all tire warranty handled by the tire manufacture, dodge, GM, ford, etc, I would contact the Nexen again, tell them their dealer did nothing and get in their s$%t about it..

I've owned many, many new trucks over the years and I can count on one hand those that actually had decent factory installed tires. I almost always end up changing tires out within the first 20K miles. Frickin' bean counters!

EZ,
At this point, I don't want the NEXEN's on the truck anymore... My tire shop just called and said the truck is done, they said that 1 of the tires liked like is was triangle shaped. On the way to drop off the dually last night, Wildman Graphics was following me, and he said at ~40 mph, my right front tire looked like a pogo stick going down the road!

Congrats
MANY rotten brands out there now
Hard to know what is still worthwhile.
Michelin still seems to be one of the last that you never hear bad about.

I feel your pain, my truck had the NEXEN AT tire as well. What a POS I used the truck in the snow belt (Wisco) and it was scary how bad those where. I replaced them at less the 8K with a set of TOYO open country's and haven't looked back since.

Yep,
1 of the worst tires on the market. Pulled the Talon yesterday, ride is smooth as a baby's butt...
