What are you talking about?
A heat ring?
Just noticed the side wall, it is a Davanti.
Just change the tyre for one that actually works.
I'm not sure either. Think it may be an American term. It means when the tyre is driven at low pressure it can damage the wall and looks like a ring or something. What's wrong with davanti. The tyre centre near me who I was going to go to in the morning put that tyre on for me last time for £60. I asked is it a decent tyre they said yes A heat ring?

it wouldn't surprise me if that was reason for some blow-outs.
Maybe 50/50 on that one, as surely the screw will be well threaded into the tyre carcass, so maybe not as clear cut as you say.E-bmw said:

I could still be wrong about the heat ring as I'd never heard of it before, that was another shot in the dark.

Heat ring on brand new Eagle 6 tyre, less than 2 weeks old, due to giant screw.
I didn't spot it being completely flat (only took 3 hours from getting the screw) as it was on nearside and by the time I felt it and then the TPS system reported it I had driven about 400m. Was roasting hot. Loose rubber inside the tyre, so painfully replaced it.
