I have a 2004 Chevy Colorado with the sport package / low profile tires. I have had one blow-out already and now have a front tire that has an approx. 12" bubble in it that occured when driving on a 80* day at 70mph. The bubble is approx. 3" in height. The truck has only 28,000 miles and has now gone thru two tires.
Tire blowout at a slow speed, defective plastic fasteners, vibration, shimming could be caused by faulty tires that have more than one crease on the sides.
