My Motorhome was purchased new in 2019 and just checking the tyres i have noticed that all four tyres have developed a side wall bulge, the tyres are Michelin 225/75R16CP Agilis with a mileage of only 4000 from new, the first one i put down to pot holes but as all four have developed the same fault in more or less the same place on the tyre i can only assume it is a faulty batch which was the view of my tyre fitter. has anyone else come across this problem?

    Do you use it all year?or is it standing for months on end in one place, where the tyres can deform

    Thanks for the replies, the MH as with many has been standing around and i had considered that point, but it seamed strange that there was a clear bulge in the same place of the tyre (identified by the writing area) on all four tyres. i have now replaced the tyres and will look to put the hydraulic jacks down when not in use the take the weight off the tyres.

    and will look to put the hydraulic jacks down when not in use the take the weight off the tyres.

    That is what I do, it also acts as an anti theft deterrent.
