Internal tire damage

I took my car into the shop yesterday to patch a very small nail puncture. Upon initial examination the shop said it would be an easy fix. However, when they removed the tire both sides of the internal sidewalls had split and were damaged to the point where the shop said they would be dangerous to drive on. I ended up purchasing a new tire but now am wondering about the tire on the left side since the damage is only visible if the tire is removed from the rim. The tread depth on the tire I replaced was 5 millimeters and had about 12,000 miles and I expected it to last for at least a few more years. Needless to say I was extremely disappointed to find out that that a $400+ tire was so poorly constructed that it lasted less than two years.

Potenza s001 poor value

In April I purchased 4 Potenza s001 for my Audi Q3 they didn't last 7,000. Normal road wears in Maine, and the tires need to be replaced. Bridgestone doesn't care that these tires have not met any standard Bridgestone claimed regarding the Portenza tires and Bridgestone customer relations will not discuss their own Bridgestone tires. I would not recommend the Portenza tire or any Bridgestone product due to their total disregard for their customers

November 2021, Sebring DE on new Potenza Sport

Just completed a 2 driver, single track day at Sebring. Total of (6) 30 minute sessions. Since our favorite RE-71R's are no longer available, I purchased the new Potenza Sport for street, autocross, and track use. The tires did great on Sebring turning 2:40:00's (intermediate drivers) on a dry, warm day, so they can likely perform even better lap times. Very happy but wish they were a bit softer (300 treadware rating vs 200 for the RE-71R).
