Well for the past month or so my car's handling has been acting up. The overall rided has been very shaky. At first, I thought nothing of it, unntil it gradually got worse. Finally today I got fed up and went on a mission to find out what was wrong with it. Didn't take me long! I looked at the rear passenger side tire and it was torn to shreads. There was metal sticking out of it! Im glad I didn't drive it too much more because I might have had a blow out!

 

yep that would do it. Is the tire just worn all the way out?

 

good thing u checked it out....or else...something serious could've happened.

 

That would definitely cause it to handle like ****. LOL

 

the tire has metal peices sticking out of it and chunks missing
it was pretty bad

 

Steel radial ... corded.

 

It took you over a week before you checked this out? lol

 

haha yea but im finally getting it fixed today
i need 3 new tired but might just get one because im thinking of getting rims with tires used for 500, they need 2 new tires sometime soon though. If i get that how much would 2 tires be for 17 inch rims. They dont have to be anything special just tires. I m guessing i would need low profile

 

hahaha this post rocks. . . hahahha

 

Glad you cought it before something really bad happend. I was going to blockbusters lastnight and saw a car with sparks flying out of the tires. I don't see how people don't realize their tires are worn out. Then again i check everything on my car aleast once a week.

 

well i got them fixed yesterday! all 3

When was the last time you checked your oil level too???

How could you have not seen that happening to your tires???

 

pretty bad when u drive around with tires worn the the belts

 

keeping them rotated every 3-5K miles works wonders... helps keep my tire wear perfectly even all the way across, even with negative 2.25 deg. camber (no camber kit).
