Tire bleb

535d1420 · 01-12-2017, 07:20 PM

I was filling wiper fluid in my car and noticed a tire bleb. Seems like i should get it looked at. Any idea of factory warrenty would cover it?

Thanks!

I got road hazard in addition to the bumper to bumper so my impact bubbles are covered. I don't know if the factory warranty covers tires unless specifically mentioned in the policy.

I don't believe that the factory warranty will cover this. I got the extra wheel and tire insurance and it definitely does cover it. I had 2 tires replaced for only a $50 deductible.

nope...i pointed this out to the Dealer and they told me without proof that i must have hit a pothole and that it's not covered. he than said i'm looking at $500 for a new tire installed.

I am assuming its a safety issue? I think i need new tires all round anyway. What run flats do u guys recommend?

I like my DriveGuard's.... <$900 at Costco; with the $70 rebate.

with OEM run flats, the road hazard is well worth it. It cost me $900 and within a month I had to replace to the two front tires at $482 each. Insurance covered it 100%

1100-1200 at costco and discount tire for the drive guards. Anyone know of any other tires that are god but wont cost me an arm and a leg. I was thinking about getting them done at costco. Also, for those that buy non run-flats where do u keep the spare. Just chillin im the trunk?

I have a nice mini air compressor and a plug kit in the trunk, I take the spare and jack kit from my e60 if I go out of town.

if you want to replace with a "decent brand name" non run-flat, the price + installation usually ends up close to run-flat is what i found; and surprisingly, 20" tire costs less than 19"
