Got window tinting today and came home with a friend
All right my fellow 1LE TPW 11/12 groupies
Well got clearbra done yesterday,and the window tinted today,so kinda felt protected till i got home and saw this big ass nail in my tire.Well obviously this brand new $360.00 tire is ruined! My dealer is one of the good ones,they are going to split the cost with me,but my half is still $200.00 I am just so upset that this happened i just cant believe it! |

Ouch! Sorry to hear that. When I first read the title I thought you found a dog or a cat.

That sucks....Those are soft tires, so when you replace if they offer the road hazard warranty, definitely take it....

Looks like it's boarderline a thumb width away from the edge. Put a plug in it and drive it. Same thing happened to my GTO and 8000 miles later, not 1 lb less air than when I fixed it. If you are going to race the car on the track, that's one thing, but if running on the street, no problem!

With friends like that, who needs friends. You must provide some sort of video when you go to Laguna Seca.

Did you notice it right away or did you drive on the tire? That looks brutal... sorry for the expense... At least your 1LE is still in tact...

That really bites man. Not like you've been driving the car a year or so. Yeah, just too bad you couldn't plug it, but i understand you'll be racing. Good luck!
