Hi Everyone,

I have a "chronic" tire bubble issue on my 10x6 wheels with Yoko A032R's. Bought the car at the end of last year and imported from the UK. At my request, the seller put 4 brand new A032R's on the wheels. When the car arrived, one had a bubble. I bought another tire, had it replaced at a local shop, and a couple days later (with 0 miles on the new tire) a bubble appears. Wasn't as bad as the first one but after driving on it for very little, it became much worse. 

From what I'm told by a mini parts sales rep, this is a common issue with any 10" tires.

Any suggestions? I have one more spare tire that I'm going to take to the mechanic to install and at that time, I'm going to have a look at the rim to see if there's anything that's causing the issue. Or it could be the machine install process that's doing it. 

I really don't want to increase wheel size, so if I have to buy new 10" wheels or different tires to solve the problem, I'd rather go that route.

Appreciate any input
