that shit happens to me too, I got sick of it and bought the extended warranty for my BFG's. I like to run over nails and screws with my sidewalls for some reason..

No shit! Once I picked up 2 nails in 2 different tires in the same week. One ruined the sidewall and the tire had to be replaced. Today's flat was patchable so it only cost $25.

that's the thing, every flat I've had has been non repairable. :(

That sucks! Everytime I get the stupid tire warranties they find some dumbass excuse to not honor them, BS.

Lately, some dumb ass kids have been stealin all but one lug nut off of cars, an old restores vw bug had a nice accident goin down the street, the tire went totally crooked in the wheel well and messed it up bad. Check ur lug nuts people, its amazing what some stupid kids will do out of boredum.

If you guys feel like something doesn't feel right, get out and take a look. It might save your life.

FTW!

Not just lugnuts, if something feels wrong, then something probably IS wrong. I know I'm in hurry 24/7 (I really am, its not like I have anything important to do, I just rush) and stopping to check on stuff might seem like a waste of time, but it's worth it for peace of mind.


I don't have any lost lug stories, I guess thats what happen when your the only person who ever touches your wheels. Even when I buy new tires, I leave my car at home on jackstands, take my rims, get new tires, come home, put rims back on.

If I caught a kid doing that (to anyone's car) I would stick a tire iron up his ass.

If it were my car, I'd be in jail wishing I didn't do what I did.

I've never been in this situation... IMO you shouldn't be amateur wrenching on a car if you cant remember to check your lugs when your done...

and for those of you that let shops remove their wheels and lugs... I hope you guys aren't just tossing someone the keys... I SPECIFICALLY make sure the shop KNOWS I want to watch them remove and install my wheels with a NON-PNEUMATIC WRENCH and re-install them with a torque wrench... I would suggest everyone doing the same...

Dang that is close glad nothing went wrong and you got home safe.

Buy Alpinas and you wont have to worry about it.

when my dad was younger he was in a hurry to drive to work after changing his brakes on his VW Bug. Got in a drove away, about 3 miles down the road he felt the car drop and saw the tire roll down the road ahead of him, lol. He said he was lucky there was no one behind or in front of him.
