Convex shape bulge on continental tires
Hi,
I drive GL 320 CDI with 19" continental tires and just back from a long trip to Nashville,TN.
I noticed this evening that my rear left tire has a convex (going inwards) shape bulge going vertically across the tire. My vehicle has about 15K miles so far in about 2 years. I have been only twice on a long trip exceeding 500 miles so mostly city driving so far.
I have attached 2 pictures and I hope you can see it.
Have any of you noticed this before and what may be the cause/severity of this?
I will be calling my dealer tomorrow morning to see what they will say but wanted to check if any member has experienced it before.
Appreciate your inputs.
