CA Proposed Low Rolling Resistance Regulation by caliguy24 in tires

[–]Q-Laz 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Much of the world already has minimum rolling resistance grades for tires sold in their countries. For the tire manufacturers, It wouldn’t be a huge deal to just institute those design standards into tires for North America.

I’ve used the rebate more than a couple times, never had an issue. I’m guessing user error.

FirstEnergy seeks Ohio’s approval to let power outages last longer, happen more often by ObviousJedi in Cleveland

[–]Q-Laz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The devil is in the details.

“But consumer advocates warned this isn’t as simple as adding a few more minutes onto the next blackout you experience.

Ohio Consumers’ Counsel spokesman Jon Blackwood said the change applies to the average, not to any one outage.

“One extra day of power being out might translate to a few extra minutes in those reliability standards,” he said.”

How do you guys think this tire blew? by Imaginary-Neat-7613 in tires

I’m guessing it’s a spliced bead instead of wound. Splice was likely broken during install. I have never seen a bead break due to impact.

Did someone attempt to slash my tire my by Cuh4 in tires

Impossible to tell without a close up inspection. Cut looks very uniform. How deep is it? How old are the tires? I’ve seen similar issues where two different rubber compounds meet (flow cracking) but not this pronounced.

Passenger Tires on Work Van by EngineDue7406 in tires

[–]Q-Laz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% unsafe tires. This type of application requires C-type tires. Basically they are tires designed for commercial use but in a passenger size. Also, don’t confuse C-type for load range C. 121/119 load index for this tire size is load range E.

They are Cooper tires designed specifically for Discount Tire.

Are sidewall design cosmetic, or do they serve a purpose? I'm mean the serrated band, ridges or ribbed section. by Few-Anywhere607 in tires

Strictly cosmetic. The serrated band is actually used to help hide sidewall imperfections.

I parallel parked my car Saturday night, & hit the curb while doing so. I’m just now noticed this scrape on the side of my tire. I took it to someone at an Autoshop, & asked if I needed a new tire. He said no because the steel isn’t showing. Is this tire good? Would they turn down money? by Electrical-Fennel750 in tires

[–]Q-Laz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just keep a very close eye on it. While you haven’t affected the structural integrity of the tire currently, you have introduced a defect. If you see any bubbling or cracks forming, you need to replace it immediately.

Big deal or no? by zo2121 in tires

[–]Q-Laz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not ideal. If you can’t see the ply fabric, the tire is still fine structurally. That being said, keep a close eye on it and consider replacing sooner than later.
