I HAD HEARD ABOUT ANOTHER OWNER, WHOM I'VE MET PERSONALLY NOW, WHERE HIS TIRES SHOWED EXTREME WEAR IN UNDER 700 MILES.  SOON THERE WERE OTHERS I HAD CONFIRMATION FROM WHERE IT HAD HAPPENED TO THEM AS WELL.  I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN TO ME. MY CAR WAS TAKEN REGULARLY TO THE DEALER FOR LITTLE WARRANTY FIXES.  AT THE SAME TIME I WANTED THEM TO MAKE SURE THE TIRE PRESSURE WAS CORRECT AND THE TIRE WEAR WAS NOT EXTREME SINCE OTHER OWNERS HAVE DRIVEN THEIR TIRES OVER 5000-10000 MILES.  MY TIRES WERE KEPT TO LOTUS RECOMMENDED SPECS WHICH WAS 27 PSI ON THE FRONTS AND 29 PSI. ON THE REARS.  I WOULD ASSUME THAT LOTUS DID NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE HEAT THAT THESE TIRES GO THROUGH EVEN UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS ESPECIALLY IN THE STATE I'M IN WHERE TEMPS. CAN GET UP TO 105 LIKE IT WAS IN AUGUST.  THERE WAS A PATTERN OF EXCESSIVE REAR TOE IN ON THE REAR.  THE DEALER PERFORMED THE RE-ALIGNMENT BUT I HAD TO PAY FOR IT AND THEN THE DEALER WOULD CONTACT LOTUS TO GET IT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.  I WAS DENIED THE ALIGNMENT WARRANTY AND ALSO DENIED THE REAR TIRES ALONG WITH IT.  THERE ARE AT LEAST 5 OTHER OWNERS WITH THE SAME CAR AND THE SAME PROBLEMS THAT OCCURED WITH DIFFERENT AMOUNT OF MILES ON THE CAR.  MOST WERE DENIED, SOME WERE SLIGHTLY COMPENSATED.  THIS CAR IS A LOW PRODUCTION CAR OF AROUND 310 IN THE USA.  WITH ALREADY 5 CONFIRMED CASES, WHO KNOWS HOW MANY OTHERS ARE OUT THERE WHO WILL ENCOUNTER THIS AND BE DENIED. I RECEIVED A NEW CAR THAT WAS NOT ALIGNED TO THEIR SPECS.  AND I WAS DENIED ALIGNMENT AND REAR TIRE WARRANTY BY BOTH LOTUS AND THE DEALERSHIP.  I HAVE ALSO OUT 2 REAR TIRES WHICH ARE WORTH ABOUT 300-400 DOLLARS A TIRE.  IF SOMEONE GETS THIS CAR WITHOUT GREAT KNOWLEDGE OF TIRE PRESSURE AND ALIGNMENT, THEY MIGHT END UP ON THE HIGHWAY AND BLOWING A REAR TIRE AND GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT.  *NM","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"9999","productMake":"UNKNOWN","productModel":"UNKNOWN","manufacturer":"UNKNOWN MANUFACTURER"}]}]}
