Bought a set of 4 1/2" Du-Bro inflatable Tundra tires for one of my planes. One of the tires seems to have a weak wall in the rubber. You can see how it blows out a little at the top. It makes the plane wabble when going down the runway, I've called Du-Bro 4 times and left a message and e-mailed them 3 times .... but they refuse to answer. Anyone have any ideas how to fix this problem and has anyone had this happen to them before. Any help will be appreciated.

Buy a new one, when new and hold air they can be a hoot on a plane. Play around with the air pressure you get get a bouncy set up if not careful.

What about returning the purchase?

I had a couple sets of the 6" size get extremely out of round after only a few weeks. DuBro replaced them, but they would not stay round. I think the sun warms them too much and they stretch, without being able to return to normal. Wrong compound for outdoor use, maybe. The hubs are great, though. I have long since given up on the larger DuBro inflatables for any airplane heavier than about 7-8 lbs.

Can’t advise on returning the product but if you get frustrated try these guys. The Best!
