I've heard a few people who have bought new cars talk of Tyre insurance. One person told me that when your tyres wear out they just replace them for you 
I want to know if this really exists? And who offers it?

What if you misteriously get a puncture on two tyres that only have 2mm of tread left? They replace them with new ones?
