Noticed a 'bubble' on the side of my front passenger side wheel today, changed it over to ye old steely just in case and I think i'll have to replace the tyre.
Does anyone know what causes this? I havent curbed my wheels for a fucking long time and its just popped up :/

Not quite sure what causes it, but I believe the tyre will have to be replaced...

I did ring Vauxhall and they said its out of his hands but he sugguested that I go to a tyre place to get a new one and ask them what do they think, if they believe its a manufacture's fault then go to them.
Does anyone know how much a new tyre is going to cost me? first time i've had to do anything like this :/

i know this probably sounds very stupid, but it could be a heat blister, like F1 car tyres get in ot weather
or not

Could be from going down a pot hole or even mounting a pavement at low speed. You'll probably need to replace the tyre.
