| One of my vogue radial tubless tires recently developed a 5 bulge on the sidewall. the tire is a p225 60r16 97s custom built radial 1x+. had this bulge not been brought to my attention by a passerby there is a strong possibility a blow-out could have occured. these tires are rated for 70,000 miles and i had about 30,000 miles of use. replacement cost per tire is $224 plus tax. picture available upon request. | |||

| Tire pressure sensor readout display reversed for left side. lf tire pressure showed as lr and vice versa (confirmed next day with gauge). sensor reported 40 lbs in lr (we had added no air, but car had been released from service that morning). caused me to release air from wrong tire and then add air to wrong tire. erroneous readout first appeared at 2:30am with no gas station available with readable tire gauge. serious hazard for blow-out/early tire failure.*ak | |||
