Default Does a tyre change its CIRCUMFERENCE when underinflated?

What I wouuld ask you is how a tyre, rotating at a differentent
rate from a wheel, so that its circumference does in fact get
covered on the ground by that rotaion, stays on the wheel without
ripping the tread off?

This "philosopher" hasn't ever noticed the tyre debris on the roads
where the tread has been ripped off.

Maybe he wants to explain why it happens to lorries with twin wheels
where only one tyre has gone flat but is being kept at about the
correct radius by the other wheel?

Ah, nice attempt at a shimmy there, Den. Our Dave would be proud of you.

What you're in fact admitting is that the wheel and the tire *must*
rotate at the same rate, otherwise the tread would come off.


How dumb can you be to think that is what I said?
I said the exact opposite of what you chose to claim I said.

Are you TNP ?


TNP says (above) that having a wheel rotating at a different rate to
the tire is only possible if the tread rips off.

You point out how much tire debris there is around.

QED.


You are just hoping nobody bothers to think about what you claim.

TNP says if they rotate at different rates the treads fall off..
I say treads do fall of.
You think it means I am agreeing with TNP.

Just think for a second instead of parroting TNP..
The tread changes length when it hits the road so that bit of the tyre
is rotating at a different rate to the rest so yes tyres do rotate at
different rates to the wheel some bits at one rate some at another and
some at all the values in between.
Now sod off if you can't be bothered to think for yourself.
