Yeah, the Turanza's just don't wear right on these cars. It has nothing to do with the alignment being out other than these cars run a pretty aggressive alignment anyway.

Almost evertime I've ever seen a sidewall bubble it's been caused by an impact. If you look closely, you can probably see a mark on the lip of the wheel where the tire rolled up over the lip when you hit the pothole, that's always the tell tale sign. It will be a very light black mark from the rubber hitting the lip of the wheel.

Use your road hazard because if the dealer will most likely say it was from an impact and won't cover it.
