Description of the problem	I own a 2006 lotus exize and its rear tires totally worn (inside steel belts were seen) at its 960 miles of life from its brand new delivery. It is really unusual tire wear such a low mileage. Lotus dealer checked its alignment and it was way off (too much toe-in) from its specified setting (1. 5-2. 0mm spec vs 25. 7mm and 23. 0mm actual). Lotus car just paid for the alignment but they didn't cover wasted rear tires and towing fees under warranty. If the tires burst occurred while driving highway, it is very dangerous it can kill drivers and passengers. I heard there are at least 4 exize owners had similar problem. *jb
