[QUOTE="kennypowers, post: 2757523, member: 855223"] Had a 2010 Nissan Rogue AWD... a lease... upon inspection for turn in, the inspector said I need to get new tires or pay 169 per tire... I said I just got ALL 4 replaced 10 months ago... he said they are in great condition but the wrong rating, they were R rated. So long story short, I rejected inspection and have another one, and this time the right tires will be on there (my buddy has the same SUV with the tires :) SO, when I called the tire shop up, which is a fairly big one and well known and asked them about this... they said the sticker "recommends" R rated or above.... I looked up S rated and turns out they are for H.D. Light Truck's (?) and someone also told me that when replacing the tires, especially on AWD, they have to put what is on the sticker, sort of like the type of oil or gas or tire pressure, etc.. Now, is the tire shop at fault? The whole reason I got them replaced was my wife got a flat, and one other tire was looking kind of bald, and they said on AWD you must replace ALL 4 even if one has to go... why be so meticulate and then put the wrong rated tires on?
