Or you have a spare AND AAA... so you got all your bases covered. And yes, there's a sub in my trunk. Its not a track slut, not a stripped down F&F wannabe car. Its not a 'remove everything unnecessary to reduce weight and get better mileage' car... its my daily driven, only car. Its fun to drive, and that's all it needs to be.

I haven't had a flat tire in ten years. When I go 5-lug, I'm pitching the spare. I carry a can of fix-a-flat.

was thinking the same thing. Id rather just keep a spare. You cant patch a blow out. AAA takes awhile by the time they come id have the spare on and already have a new tire put on at work.

I'm pretty sure that's it. I wonder where I can get that particular tire?

if you ever need to be towed pay for the triple A membership over the phone and get them to send someone. it usually costs more for just a single tow and the membership lasts a year

^^ but i thought it takes a week for your membership to clear?

I was thinking of just having the tire itself replaced.

lmao I could balloon it. My friend's s13 came with 215's on the stock alloys. I laugh at him cause they look so stupid. I'm like, "dude, my 17x8's have 215s up front... stock s13 alloys are 15x6.5... "
