This Sucks!

***RaskyR1*** · 07-19-2006, 03:41 PM

I'm getting my oil changed right now and they asked me if I wanted to do anything about the nail in my rear tire....this is the second nail I have picked up now! I'm getting pissed! I think it's from my work parking lot because I know one of my co-workers has had like 3 of them. I drive a 400 POS and never have any problems but I buy a new car and this is what happnes!

End Rant.

at least you guys got a nail within the 2nd month I gotta f***** screw in my rear tire...at least with a nail you can put some air and continue on your way to a tire shop but a freakin 2" screw try gettin that...well cant complain too much cause there's nails and screws all over the place over here.

I have a tire that Honda and Firestone have looked at and say nothing is wrong with it. But it slowly looses air. The other tires are fine. I guess lucky for me :rolleyes: the tires are crap and need to be replaced in the next couple thousand miles. I'm probably going with Goodyear Assurance ComforTread? Heard about them? Have an opinion on quiet tires?

I really liked the michellens (sp?) on my last car... they really lasted compared to the pos dunlops I had before it.

***Special Ringpop*** · 07-20-2006, 04:43 AM

My last two cars have had over 5 new tires due to nails.

***RaskyR1*** · 07-20-2006, 11:34 AM

You have to wonder if the tire shop owners are going around late at night and dropping a bunch of nails/screws on the road!

BLU BY U · 07-20-2006, 11:52 AM

this makes me want to go check my tires...

on a side note, i tire plug will last longer than a tire itself. so dont be worried about having a plug in there.

***RaskyR1*** · 07-20-2006, 11:54 AM

yeah they pluged and patched from the inside on both tires but it's the cost and the idea of having it done that pisses me off.

***Sleepy*** · 07-20-2006, 11:54 AM

Where i work there is a tile outlet place next door, I am constantly picking up nails from there skids. I get laughed at for doing it, but i will be the last to laugh if they get a nail in there tire.
