The whole point of a pneumatic tire is that it gets squashed out of round.
The definition of round applicable to automotive tires applies to tires not weighted by a vehicle. They need to come out of the mold round, stay that way mounted on an unloaded rim, and return to round after having had vehicle load applied.
OK. So that definition doesn't apply to the situation I was talking about, what happens when the tire is actually being used, when the car is being driven on the road and passing over bumps and such.
It certainly isn't rolling over any corners... neither 8 or the "rounder" 64 from my original example. The ideal is a tire WITHOUT ANY CORNERS. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
