Default Tire Forum

Would it be possible to have a new forum in the Tech section just for tires?

I think tires are going to be an ongoing problem and it might reduce the number of post if all the tire questions could have their own forum.

Thanks

I'm getting tired of this. Can't we just start a new tread?

No, I'm serious, Ron. I mean, this conversation just keeps going in circles. It gets beat to death, then goes flat. And if there is one thing I have learned, it is, "Flattery will get you nowhere." Isn't there some way to pump it up?

Sounds great to me.

Ned, Thank you for airing out your concerns.

Ned,

What should we do if the new tread is too slick? Would it be better to air it out or pump it up?

Ok, I understand. I didn't mean to deflate the thread...I was only trying to vulcanize the conversation.

Clearly, you guys can't be serious. It doesn't look like this will be a very good year.

Ned, in general I am serious enough that I am about to spit fire stones.

Ron, how about the Forum name of " Tweel "

" In 2005, Michelin unveiled their Tweel concept, a word made of the combination of Tyre and Wheel '

I don't know.

I am getting a lot of pressure from Tom and Ned to stick to the original name.
It's a stretch.

Unfortunately, the patterns emerging from this tread are starting to get dangerously close to the wire. It could start to get very sticky in here!

OK, now this tread is unbalanced. Maybe if you weight a bit, something better will come along.- And even if we are full of hot air, we're covering a lot of ground.

The tyres will be filled with nitrogen, to ease the possibility of changing pressures influencing Ron

Yesterdays discussion tread dangerously close to going flat, twice. Yesterdays flatulence discussion is again being re-tread making radial flatulence a possibility if we keep plugging away.

I'm beginning to become unglued about the thought of buying retreads.
