Car tyre bulges, often dismissed as minor, are a serious structural warning sign that can lead to dangerous tyre failure. Tyre experts urge motorists to address these bulges immediately.

• Sidewall bulges indicate weakened internal tyre layers, typically caused by impacts with potholes or curbs, or prolonged driving on underinflated tyres.
• These bulges can result in anything from a slow leak to a sudden, catastrophic blowout while driving.
• Drivers experiencing bulges are advised to have their tyres inspected promptly and to switch to a spare if the vehicle feels unsafe.
