1 chunked 710
Well, I managed to chunk a 710 down to the cords. It chunked off of the inside groove, the hole is about half the diameter of a dime. Wasn't running any funny pressures on the tire, and the tire is still maintaining pressure.
My question is this, is the tire now garbage, or is it ok to run on Not worried about ultimate competitiveness, just don't want to throw away 3 other perfectly good tires to have a matched set.
thanks-

Don't know what you did to it, we haven't seen any of that kind of behavior on several sets of V710s.

TeamRX8, is that a joke? I thought of the same thing right away, but couldn't recommend it.
The Kumho's will chunk if underinflated and sometimes just randomly. I have seen both, but not a lot. The latter happened to me, but it was near the end of the life of the tires (over 80 runs), so I was not concerned about it.
