Yeah. Hit a pothole at about 50mph (a DEEP one), and you will find out all about it. Basically, it 'breaks' the inside of the tire (like a split). Can't be repaired. Shows as a bubble on the sidewall. Presents as a slow leak.

Low profile tires are very prone to this.

School is whipping myass. I have never been this busy in my life. Other than that, I paid a guy to cut down two trees and trim 4 others in the yard. We have roughly 200cubic yards of tree poop in my yard and the waste company will only take so much at a time. This might take a while.

It is .45/acre, after taking out the house and drive, it is still pretty big. Looks like crap right now. Winter will kill it all off soon enough.
