I’m sure it’s your car being setup wrong

MY's don't require much of a burn out. MT says best tire performance is tire temp between 10 degrees plus or minus track temp......within reason.

Have not seen that in a while (since I had two sets of 95’s Do that). Prepare for lots of “thats your fault” and how many guys win with them...MT told me to keep running them long as the hole was smaller Than a quarter. My car made no change from 3195, 3196, and Hoosier C1500 (other than finish line rpm slightly lower in C1500). I stick with Hoosier until I stop seeing blisters on quick T/D cars.

Looks like maybe a molding flaw to me. Not the blistering or chunking I have seen/had on the 95s. I will keep a close eye on mine.

Glad they treated you right. Like Steve hoping that the blistering is a thing of the the past, they fix that and it’s a great tire. Mine only seemed to chunk in July/August when it was really hot for what it’s worth.
