Default Blown Tire Questions and Photoshoot pics (56k there are tons of pictures, you might not wanna try)

Well last night I was cruisin, followin my friend redstargsr around and I hit this 1in high curb (red just missed it)

So I have a flat tire, my question is do you think that a tire place could fix it up so little broke ole' scotty doesn't have to buy a new Kumho?

If not anyone in the C-bus area know where they sell some Kumho's? Thanks.

Well since my car was out of commission what did we do? We threw on the spare and cleaned up the other side... and took some pictures... here they are:

Me cruisin' (about 30 seconds before I hit the curb)


The aftermath:

Thanks for the help and comments

I got a heineken bottle through the sidewall of my Toyo Open country tire on my truck and Les Schwab replaced it for free under road hazzard warranty.

If you know where your tires came from, take it to them and see if they will cover it as a road hazzard. Lots of places do this.
