| Description of the problem | My wife had a flat tire this date and when the tire shop she took it to, pulled the tire from the wheel and noticed bubbles on the walls on the inside of the tire. They told her the tire was defective, but she probably caused the defect by draining it 15 minutes with slightly low tire pressure. Tire pressures are monitored closely and checked at least monthly with very little variations ever detected. *jb |
