Darn, if that wasn't placed in there for looks, someone had to have hit those dikes just right for them to go through like that.

Believe me Ron....it was not for looks and they weren't placed there!!!
We could not get them out without some MAJOR leverage!!! Went through the steel belts and the rubber insulation from one of the handles was still inside the tire!!:confused: |
so thats what happened to my wire cutters

Boy, that was a freak thing then. It would almost seem impossible to hit a pair of those just right to do that. But I saw a guy bring a tire into my friends garage that he had ran over a screwdriver and the blade broke and stuck into the tire in two different spots.

This tire would almost certainly have been on a rear wheel. What happens is that the front tire runs over some object and throws it up off of the pavement. The rear tire comes along a split-second later just as the object is landing but has not had time to settle down. Bang, it penetrates the rear tire.

When I was a kid, I worked in a tire shop. A man came in with a shock absorber piston shaft that went in through the tread and out through the sidewall. The tire was still inflated, no leak at all. He wanted a warranty on his 'defective tire.":LOL::LOL:

Dan,
A few years ago I was down at my buddie's garage when woman drove in with a brand new Cadillac. I think it had about 400 miles on it. She had driven off the pavement and turned hard to get back on and some gravel got between the bead and rim of the tire and of course it went flat. Jack took the tire of and cleaned it out and was going to put it back on and she would have none of that. She demanded a brand new tire as that one was flat. So Jack sold her a brand new tire and put that one in its place as it still had the little rubber strings that used to stick out on new tires on it. None of us could convince her that the tire was ok as she was sure once they went flat they could never hold air again.

True, but when you have the amount of money that she has it sure makes it easier to live with.
