I bought 4 new pirelli's for my 172 and 2 months and 2000 miles later one of the tyres seemed to 'develop' a rather large bulge in the sidewall.
Took it back to the place where we bought the tyres and they said they can't see any impact mark on the wheel matching the problem area so it can only be a manufacturing fault, and they agreed to replace the tyre free and send the bill and tyre to pirelli.
Today we recieved a letter basically stating that the defect is from a curb impact and there is nothing wrong with the tyre.
Any ideas how we should respond to this? as the wheel has definitely not hit a curb, but we can not really prove this.
Thanks in advance for any help
