Ok, so i'm constantly finding tiny chips and tyre splits. Drove me insane, I'm a great parker and NEVER touch the curb, I never mount curbs and refuse to, even if the road becomes single lane, i reverse to let cars through rather than mount the pavement. It's been driving me nuts finding these chips and splits with no cause. Yesterday whilst driving I hit a SMALL pot hole which made a nasty noise. Got out the car, and there you go, another chip and split! It's not the curbs, it's all the sodding pot holes...
Low profile tyres on the silverstone seem to be too low for my city. It compresses the tyre, splits it and the alloy touches the pot hole edge. How dangerous are split tyres? It's nothing terrible, just 2-3 splits on each wheel on the thick beading next to the alloy edge. Maybe an 3/4 inch long at the most.
