For context, I drive a Toyota Yaris on 17 inch wheels. I hit a pothole and got a bubble on my front right tire (the pain of running low profile tires). Anyway, I bough these tires something like 6 months ago and only have 5000-ish kilometers on them. The other 3 still look in perfect condition. I know it’s normally recommended to replace tires in pairs, but is that really needed here considering how new the set is? Feels stupid to replace a tire that is practically new.

    Personally, I’d replace the problem tire and swap it with the front left at best. Depending on how many miles I’ve put on it and how bad the wear it may not even do that.

    But that’s just me! There are some folks on here who know much more than I so I’d let their advice supercede the above. Drive safe!
