Hello all,
I purchased 4 new Cooper CS3 tires this weekend for my KIA Forte. When I got them home I noticed their was some rubber tags left over from the manufacturing process.. I pulled the tags off, however it left part of the tread filled in. I wonder if this is something that concern me? Maybe the correct molding is there and will come out after some wear? Maybe I am worried over nothing, but this seems like shoddy manufacturing to me, especially since Cooper seems to be highly regarded. (I already contacted cooper over this, nothing back yet..)
