Buldge in side of tire = no possibility of repair + dangerous. Please take it to your tire shop and have it replaced.

That buldge on the sidewall means the tire has a soft spot, either from hitting a pothole, curb or from a defective tire. This means that the tire will blowout in a matter of time.

it could blow at anytime, and deflate in seconds, not a good thing to have while moving

not quite a soft spot, moreso a separation of cords. replace the tire ASAP...

Does anyone have experience with Michelin Crossclimate 2? I'm thinking about putting them on my 2014 Maxima.
