Nexen Tires (factory installed)

[DepotsNutz]

It could also be load related. Have you gone on a CAT scale while fully loaded?

The tires are rated for:
3085 single
2835 in a dual

Front tires - 6170
Rear dual tire - 11340

If you are exceeding 6170 on that front axle you might get some odd wear patterns.

Yes, not even close to the load limits.

Has anyone ever seen anything like this? At first I thought "curb rash" but at least 3 of may 6 tires (2022 F350 Ram Laramie DRW are doing this and the others are starting. Zoom in and you'll see the rubber itself came off and I'm looking at white bands underneath.

 

[G Mcpherson]

Yes I had the same wear marks on my recently purchased Ram Dually.

 

[BAT3500]

My nexen's have done the same thing. Have about 26k on them.

Looks like marks from rear dually tires rubbing on each other as they flex.

Has anyone had any luck getting Nexen (or RAM) stand behind them. 20X miles (started around 15-16. Truck bought new last December

You mean for the white showing through on the sidewalls?

 

[Larbohn]

Yes, the rubber has peeled off. I don't know if the white showing is a belt or another layer of rubber

It's the same layer of rubber that makes up the raised white lettering. Mine did it too. Got rid of them for some Michelins.

Good luck getting someone to stand behind them. It's near impossible to get either mfr to stand behind OEM tires when they fail, let alone just look bad.
