Re: New Avon Storm Ultra's
Well, I din't expect that - my first storm ultra 2 rear has lasted a total of about 120 miles!!!
I checked the tyre this morning, and there were 3 patches on the right hand side where the tyre had 'scarred' - each patch was about the size of a 50p, and looked as though the top layer of rubber had lifted leaving a 'pothole' in the tyre, about an inch from the edge. The holes were between 1 and 3mm deap.
Never seen it happen with a tyre before, neither had my tyre fitter. He has put a new one on for me FOC and sent the old one off to be examined.
I'll let you know the outcome when the report comes back, but in the meantime I will be keeping a close eye on the new one in case the same thing happens
