I purchased four new hifly hf201 tires, size 185/65r15, on september 5, 2014. On october 21, 2014, the front driver's side tire blew out while i was driving home on the freeway.

Prius tire wear - goodyear integrity tires have worn to the point of "recommended" replacement at 20000 miles. Toyota customer experience center & dealer claim that prius tires "wear faster than most cars"... I have not heard of a 50,000 mile tire lasting only 20,000 miles - toyota should be forced to investigate why the prius ruins tires so quickly. Consumer affairs also is taking complaints on prius tire wear. *jb
