This is a chance for you to provide some information to the list on exactly what tires you had. The Michelins come in two different ratings, the "normal" and the "plus". I think that the same tires are recommended (by Michelin) for the 9.3 and the 9.5. Again, which tires did you have? Have you managed to trace them back to a particular run of tires? A particular plant? It is possible that the serial numbers on the rest of your tires would be identical. If you are dealing with a bad run, would it not be useful to know that the replacement tires did not come from that run? The serial number and other data might be useful in trying to determine that.
