    This started happening suddenly with the tires in my mod about 3 months back and I have messed around with the tire values many times and can't seem to track down this bug. Rarely, a tires tread beams (I think) suddenly expand to ~x2 their original width, which causes dramatic bouncing and flying around. Tire values seem stable otherwise. Below is the pressurewheels section of one of them (There are a few dozen of various sizes but most of the values are the same). All wheels are slightly less narrow than rim. Any ideas appreciated.

    Code:
        "pressureWheels": [
            ["name","hubGroup","group","node1:","node2:","nodeS","nodeArm:","wheelDir"],
            {"disableMeshBreaking":false,"disableHubMeshBreaking":false},

    Could you also paste the code above '"pressureWheels": ['?

    Not the exact same tire but here's one of them, they all pretty much look like this.
    Code:
    "RDP_F_forklift_1": {
        "information":{
            "authors":"BeamNG",
            "name":"25'' Forklift Tires",
            "value":115,
        },
        "slotType" : "tire_RDP_F_7S",
        "flexbodies": [
            ["mesh", "[group]:", "nonFlexMaterials"],
            ["forklift_25", ["wheel_FR","tire_FR"], [], {"pos":{"x":-0.50, "y":0.0, "z":0.0}, "rot":{"x":0, "y":0, "z":180}, "scale":{"x":1, "y":1, "z":1}}],
            ["forklift_25", ["wheel_FL","tire_FL"], [], {"pos":{"x": 0.50, "y":0.0, "z":0.0}, "rot":{"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}, "scale":{"x":1, "y":1, "z":1}}],
        ],
        "variables": [
            ["name", "type", "unit", "category", "default", "min", "max", "title", "description"]
            ["$tirepressure_F", "range", "psi", "Wheels", 28, 0, 50, "Tire Pressure", "Relative to atmospheric pressure", {"subCategory":"Front"}]
        ],
