Left work yesterday and heard a funny noise, at first I thought a stone in the tyre then maybe wheel barring, if only.
A length of metal had gone into my tyre, bent to create a hook and proceeded to wreck the side of my car.
I'm grateful as usually I turn my music up when I leave work.
£300 down already for two new rear tyres and waiting on price for re spray.

Both my rear tyres were at about 3mm so made sense to change both, changing the tyres I was kind of expecting come October but not the rest.
Been there more than once recently and yes it does make sense.. (y)

I had similar happen on the R-S. Luckily I heard it and it was not destroying the paint. I have had advisories on MoTs that the affected tyre has a tear, but not down to the bead. But those tyres are now on 35k on the front - on an R-S with 4mm left still. Michelin PS4S are the dogs danglies!

Bad luck Darren!

That is really horrible luck. Bad enough for the tyre damage, but to take out the paintwork is downright evil. Good luck with the repair.
