Default Spot the error...

Just checking the paintcode on my GT3 to get the centre console done in white when I noticed this. Anyone see what's wrong here?

For each type of tire, it is the same PSI for two people with and without the additional weight of luggage.

I believe that the color is named after the famous white marble from the city of Carrara, Italy.
