Why u shouldnt do 110 on used tires

**WHYTEBOI** · 08-03-2009, 11:02 PM

so anyways i was being crazy and decided to pass a friend that was doing like 70 and i was gonna fly by him and the entire tread popped off my rear driver side tire. luckily i wasnt being too crazy and i was too lanes over and there was no traffic. i almost spun out on the highway but ive been driftin a lil bit so i didnt panic (ok maybe i did a little) and over countersteer. i got off the highway and was shocked at the body damage. i didnt even realize it was my tire while it was happening. i thought engine was or lsd was fukin up because it was loaud as hell and shaking like crazy. even more wierd was the tire was still full of air! the tire had atleast 30 percent tread.

what could cause this dry rot or sumn or being really old???

anybody know a good/somewhat cheap place to get this fixed? how much you all think this will cost me?

**ScrapMetalDSM** · 08-03-2009, 11:04 PM

Thats why they have speed ratings on the tires...

Used tire shops is your best bet if your looking for cheap. but if you plan on going 110 again. Get BETTER tires!

**toxxxic** · 08-03-2009, 11:36 PM

the same shit happened to me with a used tire

i wasnt doing 110 but uh yeah, the entire tread came apart from the sidewall. i called them and raised hell - and they replaced it for free.

**Jiggity96** · 08-03-2009, 11:53 PM

**SoLJames95** · 08-03-2009, 11:57 PM

**sirkus** · 08-03-2009, 11:58 PM

That sucks. Learning is fun.

**Psw Jdm** · 08-04-2009, 12:13 AM

**speedminded** · 08-04-2009, 06:06 AM

What size is that tire?! High profile and skinny...looks like something off a u-haul trailer!

**YoTa_BoX** · 08-04-2009, 06:47 AM

Fucking kidiots, Do me a favor and go turn in your licenses. Your the kind of son of a bitch that makes me pay higher insurance. I hope the next time you flip the bitch.

So you posted to say you went 110mph? We care because?

**Nismo** · 08-05-2009, 03:46 PM

Its cool going over 100! Check this mother fucker out! I bet his balls dropped after this experience!!

**speedminded** · 08-05-2009, 03:49 PM

What is funny is everybody saying "used tires". Whether you broke them in or somebody else...they're still used lol!

**HachiDori** · 08-05-2009, 03:54 PM

damn, your chassis was clean too. that sucks

**WHYTEBOI** · 08-05-2009, 10:16 PM

i know man.

it was sitting in a garage for like 5 years. the paint on the roof hasnt even faded yet. only negative was hail damage and the spongy spoiler. it'll look like new soon.

**tinkolby_25** · 08-05-2009, 10:28 PM

you and evan aka catnip should get together and have a meeting about this.

**Tech_Queen** · 08-05-2009, 10:47 PM

That sucks. I hopefully you can find somewhere to repair it for pretty cheap.

**AnthonyF** · 08-06-2009, 02:50 PM

Yeahhh I would have just said, "I ran into a truck tire and look what the bastard did"

You're an idiot for driving like this. Good thing you maintain your vehicle so well.
