@Husky: Can you go into your user profile and update your cars please - it might save a few of us from losing the plot

The picture has changed but the wheels are the same!

And Google tells me they are called sirocco - which is a blinking stupid name for a wheel, all manner of irrelevant VW nonsense polluting the search results!

Gosh! Every day's a school day

Never knew that but it would explain why rims can rust internally...

I've seen it on my bikes from time to time and always wondered how it got there...

ummmm

many compressors and air lines have a LOT of water in them............. I would bet many tyre places do not keep them well drained/air dryer valves clear (unlike auto painters/bodyshops)

Im surrounded by flood plains can't avoid them , after this i needed 2 new rear tyres . This is how i found out about my water ingress

I bet those idiots blasting through Rufford Ford will have plenty of water in their tyres too.

Never heard of water getting into tyres through driving in water, the air pressure alone must be enough to keep it out, as well as the bead seal area. Seen plenty of air lines with water or moisture in. My own in a nice dry workshop accumulates some and i drain it about once a month.
And as for checking tyres/pressures I am OCD. Every Saturday when home I check both cars, Both Motorbikes, Both cycles, 2 wheelbarrows, a ride on mower and a sack truck... Wife and friends take the p*** , but I know they are always ok..
Also temperature makes a huge difference to pressure readings. Park a car with sun on one side and check them after an hour. You will be amazed !!
