Flat Tire

Pictured is what my rear tire picked up Sunday and left we with a 4" gash.

This metal pc. fell out while removing the tire..

I wish they made run flats similar to what they run on Corvettes and Police BMW

Thank God we (daughter 12 ) were only doing 25mph coming back from a trip Halfmoon Bay via Hwy 84........

Stay Safe !

You can blame a plumber for your flat. That piece is a tool that is used with a screwdriver to tighten the rubber gasket in a remodel style shower drain.

Good call! I was going to say the same thing.
