Endurance failure
Uh oh. This is how it always seems to start. Grand Design Forum wrote: . Always check your tires! I found a sidewall bubble on one of the brand new Goodyears. Got it swapped the day before we left....

When I was working at a major tire manufacturer, we used to classify tire returns into 3 categories:
1) Initial quality: Anything that exhibited itself almost immediately. This included vibrations, bulges and indentations, and appearance issues. These are all manufacturing related.
This "failure" sounds like one of those - a manufacturing problem.
2) Road hazards - self explanatory
3) Endurance - these occur many miles down the road and are what most everyone means when they are talking about ST failures, China bombs, etc. Endurance failures are design related, not defects!
This "failure" is NOT an endurance failure.
Did a certain tire manufacturer name a tire after an industry class of tire failure? Oops
