Bulges have appeared in the sidewalls of two of the four goodyear potenza tires on our 2005 toyota prius. I can provide photos. The tires were maintained by having them rotated and pressure checked at 5,000-mile intervals by the toyota dealer. The car has been driven only on paved streets and roads.
