S'okay, I was taking the ****. You just set it up so good!

As others have testified, if these very low profile tyres lose pressure,
they're knackered in very short order!

I can't imagine it does the wheels any favours either

I thought some cars use the antilock braking sensors to compare the speed of
each wheel - over a significant distance. If one is revolving at a different
speed consistently then it warns of a puncture


That quite clever. Does it warn of four punctures while you are going
round a roundabout? Or one, when one wheel is spinning in the verge? :-)
