small egg, can i drive on it?
hi, seems hit a pothole late last week and detected small egg on a front tire.
pressure seems ok. can i ride on it or is it disaster waiting to happen?
car is 6mos old and under 10k. still warranty i presume? (oem conti's)
thanks , j.

Side wall bulges due to potholes are not going to be covered by a warranty,
unless you purchased a tire/wheel roadhazard warranty. You need to get a new tire though, as luke said it's just a matter of time before is pops.

Same happened to me. I was told that the steel belt was broken. If it's OE, no warranty. I talked to MB and apparently, there's no road hazard warranty to OE tires.
You should change it ASAP.
