Consumer Description

I HAVE KUMHO SOLUS KH25 TIRES WITH SEVERAL BUBBLES IN (3) OF MY TIRES..MY CAR IS LESS THAN TWO YEARS OLD..WITH A LITTLE OVER 22,500 MILES.THE FIRST BUBBLE I NOTICE, WAS AT MY FIRST SCHEDULED SERVICE..THE DEALER KEEPS TELLING ME ..THAT BECAUSE I HAVE LOW PROFILE TIRES..I WILL BE SUBJECT TO GETTING BUBBLES IN THEM IF I HIT POTHOLES..I LIVE IN A CITY WHERE EVERY STREET HAS SOME KIND OF POTHOLE IN IT..I ALSO HAVE TWO OTHER CARS THAT I HAVE HAD MUCH LONGER THAN THIS ONE..RIDING THE SAME STREETS WITH" NO BUBBLES". SO IF I WANT TO KEEP THIS VEHICLE... I SHOULD EXPECT TO BE CHANGING TIRES ONCE OR TWICE A YEAR...THE LEFT FRONT TIRE HAS (3) BUBBLES, THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE HAS (2)BUBBLES, THE RIGHT REAR HAS (1)BUBBLE..I REALLY BELIEVE THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE SIDE WALLS OF THESE TIRES...I EVEN CONTACTED KUMHO.. TO NO AVAIL..I AM WORRIED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND MYSELF...IHAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR OVER 40 YEARS AND NEVER HAD PROBLEMS WITH ANY OF MY TIRES LIKE THIS... EVER!! IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED IF SOMEONE COULD LOOK INTO THIS MATTER ASAP... *TR
