If anyone is running these front tires, check the serial number of the tire to see if it's between the dates. The front tire on my original Hero Blue rim is part of this. Currently, Continental is waiting for approval for the process to start replacing the tires through the government (figures, right?). So, if you purchased the tires and registered them, you'll be getting a letter in the mail once their process is approved. If you haven't registered the tires, you'll have to call and file a claim or go through the dealer where you purchased the tires. Good Luck!
