Hah... you guys want a good one? This happened to me the day I took delivery of the Z. This bad boy was probably around 100 psi. I drove it hard right off the lot, heated up the tire, and it bubbled like a fuckin football. They said there was something wrong with the tire before I took delivery, so they had put a new one on. My guess is they had it pressured to set the bead and then just didn't let the air out after
