Does anyone know if this is either my wheel settings or car and track set up, or even the new physics giving me a hard time. I been trying everything and still no luck. Any help can be appreciated. EDIT.. I'm on PS4 with the T300.
 
Do you have stability control on? I had on it for a bit so I can understand the physics and the controller settings and the car did the same.
 
Race engineer says, "Tyres are overheating". The most I see smoke is, when using the TCR cars at Dubai.

I'm on XBONE with controller.
 
I'm using real assists and I'm noticing this in a fair few cars around long corners. TC at Parabolica and after the Bus Stop at Watkins Glen, the NASCAR at Indy and IndyCar at Texas.
 
Had this happen on the final turn at Sugo in the Panoz GT1, and in GT cars old and new at Fuji.

I'm also getting this just after the bus stop at Watkins.
 
It happens in every corner where there are high loads on the tire. I think I saw somewhere that SMS are aware of it but I'm not positive.
 
Final corner at Sakitto as well.
 
I noticed a continuous plume of smoke from my old Mustang in a replay on Big Willow, and wondered if it was burning oil :D

A Mustang doing that on a high speed curve is realistic. ;) :P :lol:
 
So I shouldn't have to worry about my tires wearing out as this looks to be a visual error? Or should I be careful just to be safe in league races I'm doing in the future?

Don't worry about it, just keep an eye on the tire wear indicators.

It's doing it on curves and straights. Like I said, 'continuous'.
 
That happened to me yesterday at Fuji... the very same turn, the very long right turn. It killed my tyres. Well, almost. I was driving the Huracan ST. I was quite shocked to see, all that smoke and the left front tire wearing off in the HUD.
 
The big sweeper at Road America is another good corner to observe the effect.
 
This problem is still appearing. I thought I had a wonky set up
