Oh great, so it is American manufacturing that creates tires with holes in the sides. Way to go U.S.A.

Ironically it is American Manufacturing, but probably Chilean Engineering... That Free Trade thing coming up again..

ROFLMAO

I don't know why you act like that's something new. I remember back in the early 80's when my dad ran a late model. Had the same problem. We'd go and wash it and the tires would look like a giant white wall!!!!

American Racers do the same thing. It rained at the track the other week and all the cars had white walls.

Ok Start Laughing

You guys may laugh at me, but once the tire is expanded from heat and starts to leak I put in a can of fix-a-flat before a race. It slows the leak down to days instead of hours.
The left front on my NAPA Chevy would go flat in a few days. I took it off the car, put in a can and laid it on one side then the other for a few hours each. Needs air about once a month now.
Have not tried that green stuff yet. But heard it works too.

The white letter tires are/used to be made in Chile. The newer yellow letter tires are made in the US. (As far as I know)
