What owners wrote

Tire bubble developed on sidewall of tire without any impact. Car taken to dealer for review and service manager said this was a safety issue and tire needed to be replaced. Tire dealer would not replace tire under warranty. Said I would have to pay for it and then fight it out with pirelli. Many people have had the same problem. Tire only has 1350 mile on it.

April 2002

Dt*: the contact stated aftermarket rims and tires were installed on the vehicle. While making left turns the tires rubbed against the fender wall. The vehicle was taken back to the dealership where an aftermarket spacer bar was installed which temporarily remedied the problem. Afterwards, the dealership put the original tires and rims back on the vehicle. The contact believes the aftermarket spacer bar has interfered with the integrity of the vehicle.
