Where's my cookie?

My 6-year old is a Wii / Lego game fanatic, he learned how to play on the original Lego Star Wars. We just finished Lego Batman when Lego Star Wars III came out recently.

He is getting better at "using the force", and is amazingly advanced at puzzle/problem solving, but still prefers to just whack everything in sight with a light saber
 
I've put about 3000 miles on the tire and have really liked it. However, as I was going about checking the air pressure tonight I noticed this:



Not sure if this is a defective tire, poorly mounted, or if I somehow managed to do that on the road, but it is a little frightening.

Yikes!!!!!!!
I would be replacing that tire in a hurry, whatever the reason was!
 
I think so. For expediency, I'll probably have them put the metz back on. But I've enjoyed the darkside and will likely go back eventually.
 
I agree with TDragger,
I've been satisfied with the Riken for a couple of years now.
A great tire for the rocket, and their cookies are better too.
 
Looks to me like that was a mounting screw up
 
I would also say its a mounting issue or very possible a faulty tire. It seems like it would of given you a really rough ride too.
 
Raptor

Ok. you've talked me into it

I'll order myself a Raptor. I'm thinking I may need a different shop to mount it this time around since they gave me a bit of grief over it last time, and I am leading towards thinking this problem came from being poorly mounted. Though to be fair, it was only the 20-30 miles I was noticing any roughness to the ride.
