  1. Excessive Wear?

    Finally have some answers... The tire was repaired due to a nail I picked up back in February, obviously, the tire shop either never filled the tire correctly, or there was still a small leak from the repair - nothing obvious from handling or braking, but only had 34 lbs in the tire when they...
