3 Tire problem

Failure Date: 02/04/2007

I was driving down airline hwy north bound before peque lane right by golf course at bridge the road is not really a pot hole but road is very distorted and the way I hit it, it put a big egg and split in my tire. This is an area were it has been like this for awhile and if you hit that spot it will mess your car up or make it hard to control your car. The tires I own are very high priced and I purchased not to long ago. I would like help in replacing the tire. I did go back and take pictures of the area in witch I hit to cause this to happen to the tire. The tires are $700 to $800 each but only one front right tire was damaged. I will have to order it.
