i have only had two flat tires in my life up until this year, now i lost two tires in the past 2 months.
in in march i blew this snow tire on the way to the airport. i was running late for my flight and i changed the tire fast enough to make a pit crew proud. luckily when the tread came off at 70mph, the car handled fine and none of the cars around me hit the tread barreling down the road.
now over the weekend i started to hear a thumping noise and the car started to pull to the right along with giggling of the steering wheel to the rotation of the wheel. i assumed a wheel was off balance, but apparently i was wrong.
broken belt. sucks because the tire was was in decent shape. so much for having a matching sets of summer and winter tires.
