so guys i got this huge ass bubble in my rear tire

after i leave jtrans... everythings all good. No more vibrations smooth sailing.
then wed rolls around and my car feels like something is not right. I hear some sound from the rear tire like its off balanced or like the wheel is just rattling on the car because the lugs are loose. i check the rim tire and lugs on the outside all good right? WRONG this morning i take the rim off and it looks like THIS on the other side:. it look like that to a little more then a .25 if the tire all the way around :( what in the hell would cause this? i didnt hit no pot hole anywhere and i just do my normal driving from home to work since i got jtran to lloook at the car also i just bought that tire about a mont and half ago :(

some people say that is camber wear others say it might be hitting something. Hell i dont know. But there is a HUGE ass bubble in my tire.

That blows. What brand of tire?

nexen n3000

Sidewall bubbles come from the plys that make the side wall up separating and allowing air to impregnate the rubber and expand it where it is weakest. So once it gets a hard hit from anything on the road it will start to separate .
I even had a set of dunlops separate on the tread surface .
Most cheap tires will do this , unfortunately most cheap tires are used for stretch on a vip car because of the soft sidewall.

good thing you caught it before it blew on you...

Good grief that is a huge bubble!

Yea bubbles are a bitch.  Gotta pay to play when it comes to stretching tires.

yep defff tire seperation. happened to me several times. price u gotta pay to streach.

same thing happened to me with stretch and a hard hit.  215/35/19 on 19x8.5

did you just install the tires?

Damn that sucks. Bubbling isn't just from stretching. I have the OEM 18's and OEM tires on my Y34 and look:

[QUOTE=BrOKeN AbStRaCt;259253]did you just install the tires?[/QUOTE]

when i went to the shop yesterday both tires were fcuked up in the back.  And yea i just got both tires installed . the drivers side is fucked too. that tire was moved from the my front to the rear and i got a brand new tire mounted back in may on the bacl passenger side. That is the pic above and below is the drivers side back.

i replaced my rear tires with some used 245/35s for now and now im gona go with 255/30 in a few weeks. the side walls on the messed up tires were really soft when i felt it. what do you guys thinik??

[IMG]http://i27.tinypic.com/25zt8bn.jpg[/IMG]

tire bubbling sucks! i have had the same thing happen to me 5 times this summer already. its just what happens i guess. by the way, 255/30 fits better. trust me!

man i have a bubble in my passenger rear also. shit sucks

so 1st i discover a messed up tire on friday morning i didnt drive my car all day.FML

 2nd the next day i go to the tire shop to mount some used 245/35/20 on the rear. they dismount both wheels from my car and turns out the other tire is bad as you can see from my 2nd pic  FML

so i get them replaced and then go about my business. and i will just get me some new 255/30s mounted in a few weeks i say to myself.  3rd I wake this morning and wake up to this. the puncture is very unnoticable from the pic bc it is very smalll. just look closely you will see it!!

[QUOTE=Jtmroczk;259449]whats your full tire size for your n3000? 245/35/20?... or?[/QUOTE]

Yea the rear is 245/35/20 the fronts 225/35/20 nexen n3000. I am having shitty luck this week :(. Fuck it if anyone is intrested in the rims lmk they for sale with current used tires in the rear same size on both brand new up front but one of the new ones has a puncture though=\ 2500 shipped lmk anyone if you are interested pix can be found in the cl wheels classified

hm bummer. i have the same size rears but 19s N3000, thus far seem to be okay but i guess ill really need to keep my eyes peeled. i try to keep some money in the bank for tyres for this reason...

well i thought i would be ok too it was working great for a few months until this shit happened :(

just out of interest, what tyre pressures do you run and how often do you check them?

35-40psi and bout once a week

i think you should increase your tire pressure

[QUOTE=volkgt7;259906]i think you should increase your tire pressure[/QUOTE]

what is the normal tire pressure for stretch tires??? i want to do about 45-50PSI but is that to much?

never ran less than 40. i keep my tires at 42 psi cold and check them every three days. i dont mess around with tires

[QUOTE=volkgt7;259999]never ran less than 40. i keep my tires at 42 psi cold and check them every three days. i dont mess around with tires[/QUOTE]

these fucks had mine pressured to 35 :-\ i think i will do about 45 then

i also do 42, and check about once a week or so. yeh when i got my tyres fitted i had 32 on fronts, 35 on rears :/

same thing happened to me on the freeway today I have 215/35/19 falken 115s on a 8.5 rim that sucks. and its hellah HOT today for changing a tire on the side of the road.

you sir are all grown up now ! :biggthumpup:

stance is Very nice esp on daily drive height

Tires bubbling up suck. I've learned the hard way on why it happens. In my case and in also others', is that the load ratings are too low for some cars when going to a smaller tire, especially Falken FK452's because they seem to run a size larger, you would have to go down a size just to get the same stretch as other tires, but risk the lower load rating. I bubbled up tires on the front of my Y33 Q45 using 215/35/19's, 225/35/19's, both FK452's. Once I changed to a Falken ST115 235/35/19 up front, never had a bubbling problem, but had the same stretch as a FK452 225/35/19. Overall, watch out for the load rating when choosing tires. Stretch is nice when needed, but not at the risk of a load rating of like 87 or something low on a heavy car.

people just dont understand stretch tires is bad from the get go... any car... period... and to think we ride big bodies?  shit bound to happen.... and thick tires on vip cars look nasty...  helllllla nasty.. so nasty, shit aint even vip...
