Added air in the tire to see if I could finds the hole...no problem as it wouldnt even keep air. Luck for me, its on the inside side wall :sarcastic:. And realizing no one in town was open after 6pm to try to find some PS4S...all the way around since i've been looking to replace the rears. Guess i'll be rocking a Buick Enclave for a few day .

Wife was happy to hear PS4S tires are ballpark $1,700. :goodtimes:

We move to Florida and I think my streak is over. I go 3 years w/no issues, then boom....just like you shrapnel in the road. 2 rims cracked and 1 blow out. All she does is shake her head and ask why I don't drive a Sherman Tank
If I lived in an area like that I would definitely pay for the tire warranty from Discount Tire. They are great on actually replacing stuff and I have had a great experience at the one around me anyway.

I can usually get my Z tires for around a grand, but my truck tires run closer to the $1700 range. Thankfully not much issue around me with poor roads or hazards.
