I just noticed I have a bubble on my front right tire from a STUPID pothole!! Anyone else ever have this problem? I'm going to put the tire in the back right for now so my steering, accelerating, and braking are not as effected. I might as well go out and buy a new tire.

If you've had this problem, did you just buy a new tire(s) or did you ride on the bubble for as long as you could. These tires are Cooper Lifeliners Touring SLE and they are only a tad over a year old. So, getting a new tire just kills me.

What's the professional advice from the Max lovers?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Bubble will get bigger and bigger if you keep driving on it. If you wait too long, it will pop. Do you want your tires to pop when you are going 75mph? Get your tires replaced ASAP.

 

Ok, I'll see if they can order that tire for me. Better for me to just have to buy one than 2 or all four. What an *** pain. Thanks for your help.

 

When that tire pops, you might come down hard enough to destroy the rim and that's going to cost you hundreds more to replace.
