I am really happy with my Argo V2. No problems except having to get it adjusted to run cleanly above 7,000 foot. But, one year in, I got a flat--no big thing, except there was nothing externally wrong with the tire (22' Rawhide III)--no puncture. I bought a spare from the dealer--It went flat. The other five tires are fine.
Best I can figure is high altitude and winter cold does something to the tire/wheel cohesion. Any ideas about how to get the tire firmly attached--and maybe retrofit my others. I'd like to trust all my tires.

If a tire spins on the rim I would say EITHER the rims or the tires are not up to specifications. I could really see that happening on a DRAG RACER but on a low speed vehicle like an Argo?.. Sure those are not Firestone tires?
