I just noticed a small area on my Primo Wall tire bead that sticks out a little more than the rest. It was definitely seated properly when I pumped it up. I only put 110 PSI in my tires. Is it usual for Primo Walls to have deformities or did I just get really unlucky with this one? Has anyone else had this happen? I don't wanna switch to another tire cause I really like Primo Walls but this sucks.
try reseating the tires...I think thats weird for a primo wall to do,they were the only tires I used for years cuz they never did crap like that....
Primo Walls have always been really good and reliable tires throughout the years.the prob is that they arent really rated for super high pressure even tho most people pump them up to 100psi+ with no probs.it IS possible that u just got a defective tire. try re-seating it like AK said, and if the problem persists, try to exchange the tire or buy a new one.btw...how much pressure is in the tire when it starts to bubble?and also, do u run 2 Walls? front and back. if so, are both popping out at the bead at high pressure? or is it just one tire doing this?and last, are u using single wall rims? single wall rims are not really made to handle high pressure tires, and a problem like this isnt uncommon with those types of rims.
I never had problems with the primo wall but I never pumped it over 80psi.
well, if your going to use over-rated pressures, it wont be a surprise if a tire gets defective.. the probability is larger..
