“I have a mercedes benz C300 with 16,300 miles on it. The vehicle came with continental, contipro, 225/45 r17 91h tires on it two tires on the left side of the car have developed bubbles on them and will have to be replaced. The tires on the right side will have to be inspected since they may have bubbles on the inside. I have just read many complains about these tires and feel they are dangerous and should be recalled.”
