Oh, I thought maybe this was going to be about overweight S&M drag acts...

Usually that'll just be bad seating on the rim, deflate it, pull it around and about a bit, then inflate it super-hard, then leave it a bit, then see what its like.

Yep, had the same thing with RQs, checked the seating, checked it on different wheels, the lot. The tyres had deformed.

Conti sidewalls are shit.
