8 months and 11,000 miles later I am driving out of my neighborhood on a nice recently paved street and with the window down hear a "FOOP!" noise like when you run over a rock with the edge of the tire and it sends the rock flying. Get to where I'm going, have lunch and come out to find this. A freaking STICK in the sidewall of my tire!











Hey just slap a patch on it...and you will be gud to go.
