Tires and Wheels problem
1997 Nissan Altima Two Wheel Drive Automatic
----------------------------------------------------------------
I drove this car home from Sandy Springs and I was not very familiar with the roads so there was this difficult turn with a curve that I ran onto (kind of hard) and made two of the tires on the right side popped. Now that the tires are replaced, I still find that the front tire on the right side have some problems. The tire touches the front wheel arch/fender splash whenever I make a sharp turn (both left and right).

Thanks you for your help.

Hi there,

make sure that they have fitted the correct size tyres, and have an alignment & steering check as you may have bent a suspension or steering component. Start here.
