Replying to: hardhawk (Feb 15, 2006 11:12 am) I had the same problem with my OEM continental tires.The dodge house in Sherman Tx. replaced them for me at minimal cost. I now have 32,000 miles on my RT and have very little tread ware. There is a lot of differance between OEM and after market tiers by continental.

#34 of 76 Tires by sweetabee Apr 25, 2006 (9:07 am)
I am extremly surprised that the tires on my Magnum 2005 RT needs new tires. They only lasted 28,000 miles.   I also have a pull to the right. They aligned it once and now it is happening again.   Help!   Is there a different tire I should be using. This is a great car, I really enjoy it.

Replying to: sweetabee (Apr 25, 2006 9:07 am) I was told by the dealer that the stock tires that came on my 2005 Magnum - Continental self-sealing tires - were a real problem. That's why the dealer replaced them at no charge with less than 6,000 miles of wear.   That said, it isn't unusual for stock tires to wear out after 28,000 miles. The tires that came on my previous car - a Saab 9-5 wagon - wore out after 30,000 miles.   You can try the Goodyear tires that Dodge is now putting on the 2006 Magnums.   The pull to the right seems to be a prevalent problem, which your dealer should know about. Check other postings in this forum or on www.dodgeforum.com for more on this problem.   Good luck.

Replying to: sweetabee (Apr 25, 2006 9:07 am) Cooper Tires has their Touring SLE speed rated tires in exact replacement size for the RT 18" wheel. I put them on after my Continentals were toast at 16,800 miles. The difference was like night and day, and the Coopers are more reasonably priced than the Goodyears. I love my RT and the new tires make it better than it was new!!! Replies to this message: lennysky (Apr 26, 2006 12:50 pm) hardhawk (Apr 29, 2006 4:04 am)

Replying to: hardhawk (Apr 25, 2006 5:17 pm) Is Dodge repacing the Continentals with a different tire under warranty since this seems to be a common problem? Do you lose the "self-sealing" option if you use a different tire? I Got my '06 in February, and it had the Continentals on it but I wasn't aware they are such a problem.

Replying to: lennysky (Apr 26, 2006 12:50 pm) Some owners have gotten some credit on exchanges, but if it was from Continental they had to put the same tires back on. That was not worth it to me. There was no way I wanted another set of those! They may have been inproved for the 06 cars, so you may not have a problem.

Replying to: bbfd86 (Apr 25, 2006 10:38 am) The dealer told me I had to take it up with Continental, We did and they would not do a thing. I replaced the tires (Goodyears. They told me and I checked the tires are not covered under the car waranty,tires have their own (continentals) How did you get the dealer to replace them?   Thanks, Keith Replies to this message: bbfd86 (Sep 20, 2006 4:28 am) tekno1 (Jul 03, 2008 10:39 am) brinampls (Jul 22, 2008 3:59 pm) and 2 more...

Replying to: equinephotos (Sep 19, 2006 2:27 pm) The Dodge dealer where I bought the car replaced the tires at no cost with Goodyears. They told me the self-sealing Continentals were a major problem. I had a lot of other problems the first four months I owned the car. Since then its run like a dream - problem free.
