Tire Tumor?

[SRT-11]

So I'm reinstalling my freshly powdercoated wheels & tires, and I see this tumor on the inside of one of them. the wheels and tires have no more than 3406 miles on them, what might this be? Is it dangerous?

it's a bubble from hitting a pothole or the like you've compromised the sidewall. Unfortunately the tire needs to be replaced!!

Yep I would say you have a tumor. I would not take the chance. Better bite the bullet and buy a new tire. Eventually it will blow out on you.

its toast

$189 on special at the Tirerack...

Don't trust it. It's trapped air that has seeped through a pinhole into the sidewall. It's not worth it. I had one of those on my work truck the size of a baseball. Fortunately, I decided to have the tires changed before it blew. Hadn't even noticed it until they took it off the truck. But it could have been ugly losing control out on the highway.

You have the right speed index on those tires ?
I had this (huge) tumor once on a tire of a Van (F$rd Ecoline), turned out the speed index was too low.
But I wouldn't risk it and change this shoe
