Stock tire question
Anyone else have this problem with their stock tires? My air pressure is fine but I get this at least once a week or so. Any idea??? I'm getting rid of the tires REALLY soon, but I'm still curious as to what causes this.

Have you taken those to the dealer yet? If they are stock tires, they might be defective, and you might be able to get new ones (even if you are ready to get rid of the ones you have now). Just an idea...

DUDE! That is not cool at all! That is happenning to the guy named DEEZNUTs also I believe.
That is the rubber standing still while the rim turns inside it! Dangerous! I don't think they mounted your rubber very well.

thanks for the replies although I still don't know what it is.... 
I haven't had the dealer look at it. They are stock tires and they are now 15 months old and are almost completely bald in the front (yes, I did rotate them and they now have 13,300 miles on them) so they are getting replaced soon. Even if the dealer replaces them I will still only get the crap stock ones so it's not really worth asking about it. They will be replaced soon, but as I was taking pictures of my Comptech upgrades, I figured I'd shoot a pic of that too.
Thanks guys.
Jason

oops... Thought that might be a guess, but now that I think about it, it makes a lot of sense.
Thanks

Yeah... DEEZNUTs has the same problem, he said he was going to go to the dealer and get it looked at (this was 2-3 weeks ago).
