Default how/why do tires develope bubbles?

well it all started when i went to this new/use tire seller and replaced two tires. they were for about a week or two, then i started to know the car would pull to the right so i took off the right wheel and discover there tire got all mishaped and the middle of the tire surface kinda caved in. brought it back they replaced it but charged me. and now the other tire is ******* up same **** now it pulls to the left, i believe it is a bubble or some type of misshape because when i am rolling at really slow speeds i can see/feel the steering wheel yank to the left like in 1 second intervals. is the shop responsible or is it something i'm doing? i never mess with the tire pressure.. and the ppl at the tire place are *********.

That's what you get with used tires. Just buy some brand new ones. They're like $40-$50 each in 15".
