Wondering if anyone has noticed a rubber type thin lip on the inside or outside of their tires. I have had mine for 3k miles or so I think and the front right tire has a thin rubber lip that is coming out of the tire. It goes all around the tire and is only on that one tire. It is about 2mm tall and .25 mm width.. really weird and have never had this issue before.

I have them on both of my cars, what is this lip you're talking about? Is it on the sidewall or the tread? Need to see a photo please. I can walk right out to my car and confirm.

That is just extra rubber from when the tire was made. Nothing to worry about just doesn't look to good.
How is the noise on those? I'm taking mine off today they sound like mud terrains.

Well they are fine but when I am turning or taking an off ramp they are loud and I feel like I am going over rumble strips... very harsh IMO
