I‘m having some problems with the tires on my truck. The driver side tire has a little bump or rise on the side of the tire. If you run your finger across the side you can feel it. Also the passenger side tier has a little recess. You can also feel it when you run your finger on the side. I have low tire pressure right now, but I‘ve noticed these things long before then. The last thing I want is for my tires to burst on the road. Anyone else think this is normal?
Replace the tire with the little bump pronto. The steel belts inside the rubber are coming apart and subsequently weakened the tire's structural integrity. It's not a question of if, but when the tire will blow. It happened to a friend of mine when I pointed out this problem on his tire, but he let it go, and a month later, sure enough, it went. You might as well also replace the other tire with the recess. Sounds like at one point in time, someone slammed on the brakes really hard and made the tires squeal, but made a flat spot in the tread.
Take the truck to someone that knows what they're talking about when it comes to tires. A reputable mechanic or tire shop would be a good bet.
