Hey, I was wondering if any of you knew what would be causing these strange vertical indentations in my tires... I've gotta drive (well not me, but me & my friend) to Louisiana this weekend, but the G's been setting out for almost 2 months & I just noticed these linear indentations today! Is that bad? This may be a good excuse to get some good tires... *C* |

Maybe it's the tread? On a tire, which dimension would you consider to be vertical? |

Could it be a cat leaving scent or a dog taking a leak? I get a lot of that stuff.....looks funny from a distance. |

Camille, I had some Michelins on another truck that did that. It looks kind of "wavy"? Mine were fine and I never had any problems with them. Of course, like you said, you could use that as an excuse to get some REAL tires. |

My stock Michelins did the same thing when my Disco was siting out for about 5 weeks. I just aired them up, drove around for awhile, and they were fine. But I'm with everyone else, take advantage of the moment and get some new tires! |
