BUBBLE in TIRE
ok so i have a massive bubble in my spare tire. never been ridden on and is only 2 weeks old. the bubble is bigger than my hand and comes up between the treads.
anyone know anything about this. is it the tire or the people who mounted it??

Sounds like the belt is damanged in the tire. I don't think you could do that mounting the tire. Although if it was way overfilled with air that might be possible. Check the air pressure. If its way too high I would go after the people that mounted it. Otherwise contact the people you bought the tire from.

Not sure if you got the complete set of 5, if you did I would watch all the ones on the ground too.... that hemorrhoid would put you in the hurt locker if that happened on the road. Good Luck getting it straightened out.

in all honestly though it happens, looks like that tire had a bad belt and it missed inspection before they coated the belts and glued the retread on
