    I'm in the same boat Jer - I bought my last set from Sam's club, and went back in yesterday to see if they'd warranty them since I only got 40K out of a set of 70k Goodyears. Guy was a bit of a dick & basically told me the tire warranties are written so they can always find some reason not to warranty them. He basically told me to pound sand - a premise I think a smaller, perhaps locally owned shop would be less inclined to do.

    Discount Tire on the south end of Ft. Collins seems to have some decent deals, but I've never dealt with them.

    The easy way to explain tire warranty is.... The warranty on tires is a warranty on the construction of the tire. Warranty covers manufacturing defects only (belt slipping, tread separation, etc.). Warranty does NOT cover wear because so many outside influenced items (roads, lack of tire rotation, alignment, improper tire pressures, etc) affect tire wear. Those are not tire manufacturing defects.
