I've seen the term "cupping" in almost every thread on tires. I'm sure this is a dumb question to most of you but what exactly is "cupping"? From the context it is used in, I can gather that it has to do with the wear on a tire but I'm not sure exactly what people are referring to. What does cupping look like?
In a search of the forum for the answer, I even turned up a thread that said that the tire was cupping on only one side??? but no definition.
So, any help you can give to a mechanically challenged rider would be appreciated. Thanks!
