    bump

    those guys suck...especially living in downtown, i feel the city has dropped more crap in the interstate by 14th street than anywhere else. I blew out both tires on the passenger side a few months back b/c some jackass left metal shavings all over the road.

    Sucks man.. I had a screw in my tire 2 days after I got it, luckely it was able to be patched... Thats the downfall with our cars, all your tires have to have damn near identical tread depth...

    Wait, what do you mean?

    If one blows out, you get one free and you gotta pay for 3, right?

    that discount tire thing just got a makeover...they no longer replace it for free, they pay out based on the remaining tread life. The guys were saying people would get down close to bald and then mysteriously run over 4 nails...now who would ever do that?:wiggle:

    Also, replacing one tire and getting it shaved from GTE is still pretty cheap...I know, I just had to do it last week. :unamused:
