Damaged Tires

 

SIDEWALL BUBBLE

The sidewall bubble is created by an impact on the road like a curb, pothole etc. This type of damage might be covered by the Road Hazard Warranty offered by some manufacturers.

Note that this damage is in the vast majority of cases considered as a road hazard damage by manufacturers caused by the rupture of one or more internal belts (layers) in the tire after an impact with a pothole or the curb. As such it is not a defect in the construction of the tire and is not covered by the standard manufacturer warranty.


 

SIDEWALL HORIZONTAL CUT 

The sidewall cut happens when an object on the road hit your tire. This type of damage might be covered by the Road Hazard Warranty offered by some manufacturers

Since it is not a defect in the construction of the tire, it is not covered by the standard manufacturer warranty.


 

SIDEWALL VERTICAL CUT 

The sidewall vertical cut happens when an object on the road hit your tire. This type of damage might be covered by the Road Hazard Warranty offered by some manufacturers

Since it is not a defect in the construction of the tire, it is not covered by the standard manufacturer warranty.
