Strange lines on tires

Good point. Here it is

You have two extra components on top of each other.

Remove them and your problem is solved.

Well I'll be danged. This explains why it's also happened with some of my other tires, sometimes I use a master "blank" tire model to make my tires, and sure nuff, that model has the extra components. Thanks, I knew someone would solve it

New issue to me . As point of education what metric can one use to make that determination

I'm curious, why wasn't there any "face fighting" with this situation?

X-Ray
(or just get in there and dig around )

there is z fighting going on.. it's just that both sets of faces are the same color with the normals pointing in the same directions so you can't see it.. reverse the faces on one of the components and you'll see it..

What he said.
I opened up the file and the first thing I did was turn on x-ray and hidden lines. I also opened the Outliner and then started "opening" the components until I got down to the problem area (again like Jeff said). I then selected everything in the problem area and noticed in the Outliner that there were too many components highlighted. "There should only be two of those, not four" I said to myself (cheesy I know, sorry).

Cheers.

And a highly under used tool is outliner. It is really worth getting to know.

Thank you!
I'll have to spend more time with your suggestions. BTW I am using SU8 free w/o M2
My outliner ( or I should say by interruption of it )shows the same report irrespective of where I click either the problem area or not. Two components show one for the selected side and one for the mirrored side. The only difference I see is the report of the number of components in the entity info box is not consistent with the number it should be based on the radial array extent. I would never of thought to check that in any trouble shooting I would normally do. Of course the only indication I could get and reason for question was a deletion of a component in the suspect area but still have one left.

Sorry did not read your post close enough. I was not " selecting everything in the problem area"
