bubble on tire!!

[ashtrey634]

hey i got a bubble on the sidewall of my tire about the size of a ping pong ball. i ordered new tires from tire rack and might be here on tuesday. how long do you think my tire would last? til tuesday? anything i can do to hold out til i get my new tire?

WTF? How do you get that to happen? Just to be safe I wouldn't drive, but if you must probably switch out the rim temporarily.

 

[Suanico]

it could pop at any time, i seriously wouldn't drive it anywhere

throw on some blackout, just like Suanico says..........it could pop anytime

i had one of those on my tires for about 3 months, on my old car, but i just didnt take it over 70mph. Then got it replaced in the winter

I had one in the middle of the tire under the tread and it only got worse and It would vibrate like crazy too. I would just take it easy and change it asap just as everyone has mentioned.

[Suanico]

just put 2 steelies on it, be a ricer for a few weeks

Being a ricer is better than having to worry about if/when that tire will pop..

My yokohama's should have bubbles on em, i'm runnin 16 40 195, 40 series is way tooo thin, I've bent two rims in potholes, never gotta bubble, those tires rock.

How long has it been since you got the bubble? You could have been running on it for a while already, I would risk it till your new tires come in.

 

[ashtrey634]

i just noticed the bubble when i was washing my car on wed. i wash my car once a week, and it wasnt there last week. so the most it could have been there is a week. its just taking forever to get my tires in.
