on FWD cars, put the better tires in the rear.
i know that sounds funny, but on a FWD car, if your rear end breaks loose, you're generally gonna be riding that out and there isn't much you can do but hope nothin gets in your way.
better to understeer than oversteer...at least you have a chance at recovering.

I had the same problem on my stock tires. The bulge will just get larger and larger, and eventually the tire will blow out. Swap the defective tire to the rear for now and save up for a replacement asap.

i got those bumps on the sidewalls on 2 of my old nitto 450s. i got em replaced for free at discount tires cuz i bought the certificates... ended up with bfg's. 2 years later one of the other 2 450s sidewalls blew out while i was on the freeway...
