    ya shit blew out i was going 70... slowed down to 55 so i didn't get ran over, it didn't seem that bad at first but by the time i got off 1/2 the tire was shredded, fucked up... i'll say this 175$ for a piece on those bad boys sure is worth it, totaly saved my ass

    that sucks, but could have been much worse. like youst240's old talon that blew a tire and then the shredded tire was flapping around while he was slowing down and it actually caught on the hood latch cable and released it so the hood came up and smacked the windsheild (thankfully it was CF, so it was light enough to where it only busted the windsheild), and it also yanked out the wiring harness... it was messed up... glad to hear everything turned out ok

    Glad you are alright. I think you got the curse from Walker. He can't keep tires on his car long without some sort of bubble or shit happening.
