Tire has bulge in sidewall. Owner noticed it and was able to prevent a blow out. This is not an impact related damage.

I was driving through the ted williams tunnel and the left front coil spring broke. I did not hit a bump. The spring caused a catastropic failure of the left front tire. I had to be towed out of the tunnel and have new coil springs installed.

My 2004 Saab arc convertible is equipped with the wrong wheels and tires. It is equipped with 215/55 R16 93 H M+S tires and wheels. The owners manual recommends 225/45 R17 94 w rf/XL tires for the 2.0 turbo engine. My car has said engine. This compromises safety and performance. I discovered this on 10-17-2005.
