Tires OEM Audi or MRF

Possibly the MRF tyre fitted on R variant has less road noise than the Bridgestone Tyre fitted in the Elevate at the time of launch. If that is the case then it is a good move. There were complaints on road noise on the 2023 Elevate.

they have excellent grip

I am currently loving my MRF Masseter for rear. There good road performance is amazing also on bad patches its manageable.

Try mrf zappers... they are pretty good

I have had a similar experience, yes that's the procedure. The tire will be sent to MRF'S factor or Lab, from where they will confirm that it's a manufacturing defect not the users problem. They will give you a replacement.

I had got the same issue and yeah normal mrf dealer said the same thing. Best option is go to the mrf warehouse...in my case it was just a 10 minute process. Then the guy did a quick inspection of the wear and tear. Mine was less than 5 mm so I wasn't charged anything and got a replacement tyre instantly.

Same issue with my virtus. Got replaced tyre under warranty

Happened to my MRF tyres too! A bubble on the sidewall. Had to get the tyres replaced.

Same issue on my Taigun. Those mrfs are bad. The showroom and mrf said that it was due to impact damage and refused to replace initially.

My brezza came with MRF Ecotreds as well, I have already gotten 2 sidewall punctures in 28k kms. Had to scrap one tire entirely. So frustrating
