Description of the problem | My tires have developed bulges after only 24000 miles of use. I have the following, original tires: p214/45r17 my tires have significant and dangerous bulges, which can lead to dangerous driving and blow outs. If this is characteristic of all tires in the set, i'd like to be reimbursed for a set of tires that do this, their installation, and the decreased fuel efficiency that will come from having smaller tires. I imagine all three would presently (2014) amount to about $2500. Here is a url with a discussion of the complaint: http://www. Cargurus. Com/cars/discussion-t35968_ds499866?
