sad/scary night

well first it started out with finding out at work that one of my rear tires was slashed by some m**** f**** then this saturday was pretty scary after hearing my tire explode in the freeway while going to my cousins bon fire at Huntington beach. well the scary part was that i was like an hour away from home and i would have to drive on my spare home. luck of mine that i had my spare held up and drove home tilted sideways like a gangster haha. then got home and change the rear wheel to my oem's. Now my G looks pretty weird with volk in the front and oem's on the rear. here are the pics. (sorry for the yellowish/orage pic idk what was wrong with my camera) what do you guys think? haha

now just too see where i can get some tires that will not cost me and arm and a leg. to get my G back in the road with its sexy shoes

Sounds like they stuck a knife in both tires but the other side didn't show the damage until it really heated up. This happned to me when I fired one of my employees, he stuck a knife in my right front Michelin. It didn't come apart until I was doing 70+ MPH on the freeway. Funny part, he had his union try to get his job back and the reason I fired him was he called me a "white mother f^cker" when I asked him to do something....

truthfully from the last pic in the first post it looks like you had secondary rubber, steel chords showing, and that your inside shoulder was bald. you just had a tire failure due to the wear of the tire. I can see your wear bars in the pictures. if you got those tires at the same time then you should check the rr tire too
