Default KDW2 would be horrible in snow! Cheapest 215/50R17 costs less than cheapest 225/45R17

The Dunlop Graspic DS-2 is the least expensive in both sizes that we carry.<ul><li><a href="http://Winter%20tires">http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR8&amp;url=/winter/index.jsp</a></li></ul>

Default Recieved your email. Sounds like poss shipping damage.

My customer service department can get you a replacement out and take care of getting the other one picked up. Just give them a call at 1-800-428-8355, ext 360. Sorry this happened...
