tire bubble?

I just noticed there's small bubble in my front left tire. It's Kumho Ecsta 712 tires that I replaced two weeks ago, Is it really dangerous to have a bubble in a tire? I didn't purchase warranty with tires and they are almost new.. Bubble is really small and it's hardly noticible until I touch it, then I can feel little bump. Would it be ok to drive without changing a tire??

If you purchased the tires new.. a bubble of any kind, say starting at the size of the end of your finger, is not acceptable.
It could be some rubber seperating from the sidewall.
Bring them back to the dealer.

if its from discount tire, you can buy the warranty up to 30 days after you bought the tire, and then just wait a week, and take ur car in and get a new tire Other then that, its still 2 weeks, as long as you got ur tires from a quality store, they should give you a new one. Good luck

I purchased tires from tirerack.com and installed them at discount tire. Can I still purchase the warranty?

Thanks
