Does anybody use the Mr. Tuffy strips that line the inside of your tires to help prevent punctures? They do help, but I think they've eventually CAUSED a flat, because the tube pushing against the thickness of the strip at 80 psi caused the rubber to start to "split" along that edge, if that makes any sense...it's basically the reason they tell you that patches have a "tapered edge", so that there's not such an abrupt change in thickness.
Anyways, has that happened to anybody else? Is this avoidable at all?
