Well, with under 140 miles on my 2 days old 2019 GT2 and I just blew out a tire on a pothole. My dealership doesn't carry the "Kia tire and wheel protection plan" but something else (Portfolio Express 5). Is it possible to get it from another dealer and how much does it cost?

How much does your dealer charge for the plan? Sometimes it's cheaper to just pay the lease fines than to purchase the warranty

It was like $800 for 36 months BUT the company doing the warranty has really bad reviews even though the salesman said he was not aware of any problems with paying them.

Hey [MENTION=1521]chia9876[/MENTION], happy Friday!

Yeah, I feel your pain. I've actually cut TWO tires in the last month on potholes out here and I've got the 19" rims.

Unfortunately, virtually every tire and rim coverage you find will require it to be purchased at the time of purchase.
