BearKiller, 3 months ago | FlagYeah I've seen tires with one or two wrinkles or dimples before just not like this. The dimples are evenly spaced and the same size around the entire circumfere
nce of the tire on both sides. Just looks strange but now that I've put a couple hundred miles on the tire it has no effect on the ride so I'm not going to worry about it. -

tires with this anomaly but I've never seen that many. When I've seen that type of disfigurem ent it was usually relegated to only one or two per location on the tire. Additional ly, I really think I've only seen them on steel belted and as far as I can remember it's never been a problem. It's hard to tell from your picture how bad these really are. Is it an aesthetic thing for you or is there something else going on?
Even after the bead was set and the tire aired to 42 lbs the outer edge of the tread retained a series of wrinkles. Neither of us can explain this. We thought it was because the tire was too wide. That couldn’t be since I have seen bikes with rear tires three sizes wider than stock that didn’t wrinkle like this. Any thoughts?
