Just notice a weird bulge on my tyre. Probably about the size of half a golf ball. Can't push it in or anything. It isn't from the weight as it's at the top of the tyre now... (parked). Any ideas?

Are you serious!! These tyres are 4 months old or something, and were ~$200 each.

Put the spare on the back and don't speed.
There are people out there on four different sizes.

Backs don't matter - they're not joined so don't need to be the same size. But don't go touge diving either.

so your way around this is put both the rears on the front and move the spare to the back and the other good front to the back
