Blistering Tyres
There is probably only one thing I really loathe about washing your car. Its that you get so up close and personal with it that you notice all the imperfections with it. The small dings and scratches that accumulate over time, most of which are natural in the life of any car.
Anyway, washing my car yesterday, I noticed two of my tyres had blisters on them. What are blisters? Well here they are on my car
Now doing an online search there wasn't much to be found, but from what I read and the questions I have been asking on various forums it seems that the inside cords are delaminating. All things equal, the blister represents a weaker part of the tyre and is more susceptible to blowing out under high speeds or high pressure situations. WIth that in mind i quickly rang up a few people and arranged to have some temporary rims and tyres for awhile. Right now my car has the whole 'drift look' going with the mismatched front and rear wheels =P
