Wheel troubles... :crap:

[IDSkoT 5,000+ posts]

So, the last week hasn't been a good week in the way of shoes for my family's cars. My brother's girlfriend WAS (I don't let the btch anymore) driving my car to Doral every day... it's a good 70 mile drive round trip. On the way back one day, somehow, she popped my tire. I never got to see the tire, they just replaced it right away. But, now my car pulls hard to the right. Like, I don't have to turn my wheel that much to the left, but if I let go, within a few seconds, I'm in the other lane, and nearly riding the curb. (Anyone know how I could fix that...?) Prior, it used to kind of pull to the left, but it wasn't as bad as it is now.

My brother's tires on his truck were running bald, and thin... he rode up and just went PSST (that's the sound of air escape, FYI). So, he got them replaced... now here's the lulz of the thread... I just got a call from my brother, who's LIVID, saying all kinds of blasphemies... I ask him what happened and he told me that the tire came off of the rim... =|

BAHAHAA!

Bobo.

I just thought I should share.

And anyone know how I could fix my tire? cuz 4 r33lz, it's bothersome.

I just blew my right front tire on monday... it kept leaking air some how, but i never found a screw or nail or anything. I just kept filling it up lol, like 2 months long, every week or so. it would leak down and be riding on the sidewalls sort of (255/35/20, so not much meat). well i guess the sidewalls couldnt handle it, so it blew about half the sidewall out going about 40mph. so whatever, easy fix, new tire... well come to find out the whole reason why it was leaking air was because i CRACKED my wheel the 2 months prior probably hitting a pot hole //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif, add $200 on top of a new tire to fix the wheel now //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif /my shitty story

Why would you let a girl drive your car 70 miles round trip every day? Or ever for that matter?

Not sure. I wasn't even there. I was at school when all of this happened. I just came back and I realized one of my tires had more tread than the others... then they admitted.

go get an alignment.she says she had a blow out though i think she hit something causing it to blow out and throw off your alignment.

How much is an alignment? And I honestly don't doubt it. But she swears that she drove it well... except her 70 mile round trip used half of my tank... I went to Orlando from Miami (300+ miles) on half a tank. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

Even worse... she's Asian. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

But my brother's truck's tires were REALLY messed up and they didn't have enough dough to get new tires... not to mention his thermostat is stuck, or something, so it says the engine is overheating whenever you keep it at like 2K rpms for longer than a minute or two.

Wow. That sucks... I'd just go to a junkyard and see how much the rim is. Then just grab a new tire or use the tire on the rim already.
