God damn loose screws!!!

[silversleeper]

So, I worked late tonight, leaving the office at 9:30pm. I walk to my car in the underground garage to find it with a reverse rake. I figured it was due to the little speed bump that I parked over. To my suprise, I got a fucking screw in my newsd snow tire. I won't be needing my snow tires anytime soon, but I realized I don't have my lug bolt remover in the trunk!

So here I sit, back in my office at my desk, ranting about loose screws. Fcuk!

Sucks man, I'm sure its patch-able?

Yeah, I called AAA, but cancelled because a buddy of mine offered to drive down to help me out. Found out my spare is looking fresh, and is in working condition (has air in it and what not) but has a major bend in it, but rode smoothly nonetheless.

I work in Crystal City, VA.

as long as the screw isn't in the shoulder of the tire, most tire places will fix it for free. if it's in the shoulder then the tire is dead.

I hate nails/screws. I've hit two with the BFGs, but thankfully both of them were repairable. I wasn't so lucky with the last 3 sets I had though - toyos, bridgestones, and yokohamas destroyed by a nails. I got to the point where I paid for the stupid warranty on the BFGs.

A tire repair kit costs less than $5 and they are relatively easy to use. The last time I got my tire patched at the gas station, they charged me $10 to do it but once I saw how it was done I patched my own tires from that point on.

Yeah, the patch is my plan, I was just ranting about the fact that it happened after a long ass day of working my ass off. Coming to my e30 for a pleasurable drive home and finding it with a flat just sucked.
