take ruler or something that can measure small measurements... put it to the tires... measure all four... if they are lower than 4mm or 5/32" then you're due for new ones anyhow.
I don't have the sport tires, I have the 20-inchers that came on it - Pirelli Scorpion Zero 275/45R20
I'm at 7/32" on the other three tires...

Just went and looked closer and it looks like it blew out on the sidewall. I'll upload a picture.
