Coming back from New York on 95 North I hit a huge pothole when I was switching lanes. As I stopped to take a look I noticed a bulge on the sidewall of my right front tire and the rim is damaged. It is not fixable and the tire need to be replaced!

I am the owner of 2008 Acura TL which I purchased back in late November of 2008 I have about 3000 miles on the vehicle and have had one blow out during regular driving (on 12/24/08 with only 2200 miles) on residential streets without and warning I contacted Bridgestone on regards to this and the covered only 80% of the cost to replace the tire. I now have what appears to be a bubble about the size of an egg now in the side wall of the driver side tire. I believe that the tires that came with the car are defective. My concern in not with the over line of tire but that the lot of tires that was provided on my vehicle is defective. All the driving that I have done has been under normal conditions and have had no accidents nor come in to contact with any roadway hazards. I feel this matter needs further looking into by another authority. Feel free to contact me.
