Default Riding on 15's

So Im Riding on my spare tire until i get to discount tire on monday so they can fix my tire. I was driving to church last night and i hear this click click click from the driver side front tire. I get out and examine it and there a friggin screw in the tire. Good thing is its not leaking any air but i still didnt want to be driving with a screw in my tire. My car looks awful and not to mention drives funny on a spare /rant.

another reason I carry an extra FR500 in my trunk. the 1st reason is that the spare that comes with the GT's wont clear the Cobra brakes I put on.

bingo, tried it...not even close.

I do keep the space saver spare in there along with the full size. but yea, the FR and my 10'' sub take up 70% of my trunk. hasn't been an issue yet.

Ah, I actually have to use my trunk, backpacks and skimboards and ****, plus the detailing stuff I bring to jobs. I really need to get a truck. My car's filthy at the moment from hauling people + their crap around.

I saw a black GT vert today with 5 people in it, 5 ******* people. Don't know how they did it, all of them were wiggers smoking cigs and one of them looked just like spin. They were infront of me the whole way to the beach and kept looking back at me...lol

I've put five people in my car before. I've also smuggled a 6'7'' LA Tech football player in the back seat along with another 6'2'' person.

I ran over like.... a staple or something. I had the SLOWEST leak known to man in my right rear tire. I checked the air, it was low on Sunday night. On Tuesday it was that low again. Two days it took that air to leak out. Discount tire had it patched for free in 40 minutes. I love getting free ****.

Just got back from Discount tire and when i showed them the tire the screw had disapeared and only a hole was left. The funny part is that it wasnt leaking any air. So they just put the tire back on and i was good to go. Ill be keeping a close watch on it this week and make sure it doesnt lose any air just to play it safe.
