Anyone have that problem?
I have a fairly new (but cant return, no reciept) specialized armadillo all season tire 25mm, and an ambrosio evolution rim.
The combo just wont work. When blowing up the tire, once i get to about 80 psi, i'll notice some section of tire pulling out of the bead. After a few attempts to make sure its completely 'in' all the way around, on both sides, I can get it blown up to 110 psi. Check it, look at it, bounce it on the ground, all is good. Next morning the tire is no longer on the rim.....
Bad tire ? Scrap it and buy another?
