Since I have some free time tonight:
Please see Page 13 of the FR-S's Owner's Warranty:
"This warranty also does not cover the
following:
Tires
Tires are covered by a separate
warranty provided by the tire
manufacturer. See page 27."

Here's the link for YOUR reference:
http://a230.g.akamai.net/7/230/83646...ranty_2013.pdf

So let's see what the tire manufacturer says...
If your FR-S comes with Michelin's
Michelin Warranty:
"WHAT IS NOT COVERED
Tires which become unserviceable due to:
• Road hazard injury (e.g., a cut, snag, bruise, impact damage or puncture)"

For YOUR reference:
http://www.michelinman.com/mediabin/...11-pdf_1-0.pdf

And if your FR-S comes with Bridgestones:
"WHAT THIS LIMITED WARRANTY
DOES NOT COVER
This Limited Warranty does not cover the following:
1. Tire damage or irregular wear due to:
A. Road hazards, including, without limitation: Puncture,
cut, impact break, stone drill, bruise, bulge, snag, etc."

For YOUR refence:

Tire is covered under warranty if it explodes, warps at normal pressure, anything related to manufacturer's defect. If you get a nail in it...you are on your own.

Like others have said, the tires are a wear item and aren't covered by the manufacturer's warranty unless you purchase a warranty from the dealership for the tires. Most dealerships have told me to take my car to Discount Tire and buy a warranty from them for around $100 and not only will there be road hazzard but they will rotate and balance for free in the future.

Welcome to my world - I do technical support and warranty for heavy equipment and believe me, people make some of the craziest warranty claims that make this one look normal.
