Default Bubble In my tire??

I lent my wheels out to a friend and now there are heavy curb marks on the wheel, and tire (directly above the curb marks) there is a large bubble coming from the tire. Its like a tumor-- I don't have any pics of it yet, but i'm pretty sure this tire can not be used.

Your friend owes you a rim and a tire. That tire is trashed, don't ride on it.

what a flucked up friend... make him get you a new tire. i would not roll on that tire... it might blow and youll cause more damage to your car than just buying a new tire.

The "bubble" is actually where the side wall in the tire is broken. Don't ride on it if you can help it.

that tire is not safe to use anymore.. it could blow out anytime causing you to cause more damage to your rim and possibly lose control of your vehicle... I think your friend owes you a new tire and money to fix the rim... or a new rim and tire...

go get a new tire
