Ahh, sweet irony. :(

So I went to autozone to pick up a tire shine applicator sponge since mine mysteriously disappeared lol, and on my way home I notice this strange clicking noise, very rapid. I pulled off into a parking lot to see if I could find the source of the noise, but didn't see anything so I continued home. slowly. Once I got home, I noticed something sticking up out of my tire..



So instead of shining my tires, it looks like I'll be plugging one This sucks because those are new tires.. they don't even have 1000 miles on them.

Good tires too.. Oh well.. what can ya do.

I also don't think that my sweet new mod came from my car.. I can't find anywhere that it would have fallen off of, all of my bolts appear to be in place and secure.. but oh well.. guess I'll go plug it now.

That's one huge bolt. Hopefully it'll plug up.

that big of a bolt, i'd get one of the patches that has a plug in the center, and you apply it from the inside..... just my 2 cents

Oh man!!!! That bites in a big way. Look at it this way though- pick up a few more of those and you have a bada$$ set of snow tires.......

Yeah it sucked, but thankfully the air held in the tire so I could get it into a shop to get it fixed. They patched it from the inside and said the tire should last as long as the other ones... thats a relief.

god that sucks. and to think i was pissed when the day after i installed my euro clear bumper lenses a semi chucked a rock up and cracked one. and thats only a $20 part. well i was extremely pissed too at APC's non-existant customer service. Anyways, glad to hear that it's all fixed and good again.
