Damaged tire question
Hey everyone,
So on Saturday 1/11/14 I missed driving the G35 so I ended up taking it out for a spin, anyway because of all the snow/freezing temps here in north NJ there has been ALOT of potholes and I hit one that slashed the side-wall of my passenger side tire. I didn't know it had actually done so until I got out of the car and heard the air leak. Luckily I found out that my county will reimburse me for my damage.
My question is, Since I have a staggered set-up will only getting that one tire replaced affect the steering/handling some how? The tire on the driver side has about 60%-65% Thread left
Thank you,
-Alex

When I say tire shop, people typically think of a Bob Sumeral tire or Goodyear. These places have the equipment to do just about anything. See above about tire shaving (shaving off tread).

I had an air bubble in the sidewall of a tire. If you buy a tire tread gauge for like 3 bucks you can take measurements and a place like TireRack can shave them down. Luckily, the tread on my tires were pretty close, so I didn't need the tire shaved.
But, I'd save up for two new front tires if I were you, since I noticed you said it's between 60-65%. That's to much of a waste on a brand new tire in my opinion.
