Tire issue

So this happened to me today. Front passenger side tire. I dont remember hitting any large potholes or curbing that tire.

Add yourself to the sheet!

Well..tires don't curb themselves do they? =)

Would you mind adding yourself to this sheet? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MAreRJon3ZTF0VZdVkohjhYRDCZaePfIeFRLk0Xibvs/edit#gid=0

Does your spreadsheet include tire size? I could have missed it.
Just wondering if 19-inch tires would fare better.

It does look like there is some curb rash near the bulge, on the rim. I’m not blaming you, of course, but it does look like that.

$500 for one 21" tire. Yikes.

I like the 20" wheels. I wonder how those are holding up on poor pavement.

I‘ve replaced 2 of the Lucid 21’s. BMW 760 with 20s handles the manhole covers and potholes much better. Part of that is the BMW suspension, but the extra side wall is a big factor. The second tire I knew exactly when it happened. Pot hole was less than an inch deep. This is not unique to Lucid. I had an Alpina with 21’s and lost a few tires to sidewall damage without ever damaging a rim.

My Taycan has 21" Tires, 265/35/R21 fronts and 305/30/R21 rears. At 13,000 miles I've never had a tire issue (Saying that is probably the Kiss of Death). They are all-season though and NOT Pirellis. I'm just not a Pirelli fan.

btw, there's another thread that covered tire bubbles

some information there about Pirelli warranty, how to register your tires, etc.
