LOL! My tyres keep falling off
:steammocking: I feel this is related to me towing a trailer but I was just heading out to grab some cows and suddenly all 4 tyres just fall off my car so I walk back, grab the items I need and put them both back on. Thinking it was just a one off thing I start driving again and 2 second later my cars dropped all for tyres again :steamhappy:

I haven't played much with trailers but I've heard a lot of people say they're extremely buggy, is this related or is it another issue? It's been extremely funny so far but kind of worried now it can happen when surrounded by an army of zombies lol

Right after I posted I decided to check that. Only one of them was semi low so I pumped them all up and it happened again. I took my other vehicle out for a spin and it hasn't happened so I'll transfer all the good things from my main vehicle and hope for the best.

Air pressure, Tire durability, And connection of ALL associated parts matter. As in, If you put the tire back on and the brake or suspension are missing, it'll just fall off. If the pressure is low (I think it calls for 35 in game, if it's below 25 it begins to have a chance to fall off, by 0 it will fall off instantly), If the durability is too low it may just fall off too. Could we see the mechanics menu of your car with one of the tires selected so we can see it's stats?

I'll bet it's this. I had an issue when I first started playing where i was having to replace the same tire constantly. That's when I learned that the brand new tires that you'll loot at a mechanic shop have no air pressure. So, once you swap the tire out you still need an air pump to inflate it or it will blow out again very very quickly.


Oh wait, I just saw you're follow up where it happened after inflating them anyway. Maybe they were just really low on condition. I've also heard that driving over zombies can pop a tire, but I've never tested it myself.
