so new tyres break easily without them?

bc i havent noticed lower tyres chuncked as much.

one thing that bothers me is that everytime I hit something I bend my front rims.... =(
Not breaking………Chunking the tire

Yea, those stickers are for a reason…………..
They are supposed to be placed on the sidewall of the tires for helping in chunking the tire. When the tire is new out of the box it’s 64mm or more and has a large sidewall that is prone to chunk. When you true or cut your tire down to a smaller size it dosnt have the large sidewall that makes it less prone to chunking. Also keeping the car off the walls will help in chunking tires!
