Consumer Description

CAR IS EQUIPPED WITH 19 INCH ALUMINUM ALLOY WHEELS AND 245/40/19 CONITPRO TIRES. IN MY FIRST 12, 000 MILES I HAVE HAD TWO BLOWOUTS AND TWO ADDITIONAL SIDEWALL BULGES REQUIRING TIRE REPLACEMENT FOR SAFETY REASONS. THAT'S RUINED 4 TIRES IN ONE YEAR. MY INFORMATION IS THAT BECAUSE OF THE SIZE OF THE WHEEL AND THE PROFILE/MAKE OF THE TIRE- THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED. WHAT CAN I DO TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE?
