Could it be dangerous driving on these tires?
About a week or two ago my front end started bouncing and vibrating slightly. We concluded pretty quickly that the tires are the culprit. Well, since this all started the bouncing has gotten worse and I have noticed a bulge on one of my tires in the tread. The bulge is so bad it's making the steering wheel pull to the right when I am driving. They are pro comp mud terrains (which I have heard now, are awful tires for the size truck I have, 2003 GMC Sierra 2500 HD Durmax). Could this be dangerous to continue to drive on them till I can afford two new tires or should I park my truck for the next couple weeks till I get the money in for new tires?

your tread is separated, park it till you get the money for new or used tires. trust me blow-outs at high speed can be deadly especially if it's on the front end

Very dangerous. The tire tread is separating and you will soon lose it and have an almost immediate flat tire. Park it, you can't afford the wreck and the tow you will have otherwise.

The tire has split internally. there's a severe risk it is going to pass larger or blow out quickly. warmth is a extensive component in while it is going to permit pass. in the adventure that your attempting to keep money, then consistent with risk you ought to evaluate a used tire. Many tire shops will sell you a used tire for rather decrease priced.

yes. this can be very dangerous and also costly because it can mess up your front end alignment of your vehicle. i would park the truck until you can get new tires and only drive it when you have no other choice.
