After reading through all of this trouble I think I May phone back myself. My tyres are 6 months old, perished in between treads nor as bad as above though, and the sidewalls are cracking /perished I know they're cheap £330 ish for 4 but still.
 




Their still saying this isn't a warrantee issue, I'd beg to differ, I was expecting to see this on the inside so it's not a major suprise.
 
This is the inside of the buldged tyre.
If this had happened whilst at speed I suspect you would be in court now.
I would suggest you arrange collection of these tyres next week along with a refund of my money or I will be taking this further.
This failure is unacceptable, your handling of the issue leaves a lot to be desired, at the moment if you can give me a satisfactory outcome I'm happy to leave it at that, if however you don't I will make this very public which as I imagine you are aware will damage your reputation.
 
Well this sounds like it's gonna be fun then, I'll ring them next week and give them hell!
I've sourced some new ones now, gone for 235/85r16 kamians, hopefully they'll last a bit better!

I fitted Malatesta Kaimans in that size to my Disco just over a year ago, recently swapped the axles and they're now on my 90 .. Fabtastic tyres .. ;)

No issues with them other than an excess of rubber round the inner rim so one had to be re-sealed .. not an issue really. OK, some have a few cuts and abrasions, but I go laning regularly in the Peaks and three trips to the lakes and North Yorkshire where the rocks and flints decimate tyres if you're not careful.

As they were ..

How they are now, literally just took the pics for this thread .. a year and about 4500 miles later, towing a caravan, about 1/3rd road miles, the rest greenlaning ..

These tyres are remoulds, the original casing manufacturer would have made the casing to last the life of the treaded portion, there is no reason for them to make the casing last longer.
As you can probably guess I am not a remould fan.
I do hope you get sorted don't as those pictures show the remoulded looks to have used a damaged casing for the one with the bulge.
