Screw secured factory wheel weights create leaks in cold weather when tires cold causing raqpid deflatiion and separation from rim. Thought it was a freak accident until it happened for the third time causing loss of control (right rear wheel) and exit from highway. Tire disintegrates from heat within 10 seconds. This has happened on three original tires with these weights.
