He questioned whether there might be an issue with the sidewall.

This is a joke, right?

...Got to be a joke, he posted a picture of a tire that anyone with any sense at all would get rid of as soon as possible; posted that a general consensus feels the tire is ok because the tread looks good...had to be a tongue in cheek statement...oh, and he hasn't posted since.....Speaks volumes on some of the China built tires out there....there are no quality control guidelines on just about anything manufactured in China and our government is so scared of China, we won't say a word about the******we get from them for fear we'll "make them mad"....sad, really sad..

The tire is a joke, just like the OP's post..

I'm editing this post to let those that know me understand that I did not post a profane word in the above post....I wrote the word c-r-a-p and it was ****** out....guess that word isn't politically correct., but understand, I do not use profanity, nor did I post a profane word,

thanks to admin for possibly making it appear that I used profanity in my post when in reality, I didn't.....in fact, I didn't even come close........

I notice that tire says LT, looks like an LT failure to me. On the other hand...ice pic that bubble, put a tube in it and roll wheels. I also find it hard to belive that posters are taking it seriously, kinda sad.

Common folks. That's a damaged tire that needs to be replaced. Looks to me like it was damaged by the installer or it struck something like a pot-hole. See how it starts at or near the bead area.
