Bizarre RR Velar tyre issue
Discussion
Can anyone explain this head scratcher.
This is for a friend but he's had 2 blow outs, one on each rear tyre, on his new (3yr old) Velar. Both at high speed on a motorway (not sure if the suspension adjusts at high speed).
Both times there is a rumbling sound for an hour or more at over 50mph. Obviously he stopped during this time and inspected it thoroughly but could see anything strange. No warning light on the dash at this time.
Then all of a sudden, bang, it goes and the tyre warning light appears.
I can't see anything rubbing in the arch. I can't see normal springs (guess these don't have them?).
Take a look at the pictures and see if you can come up with any ideas please.
