Ugh, flat tires suck

[Fuzz]

Went out this morning and saw a flat tire on my car. Had to call my wife to bring my daughter to school. Told her I can't bring her to school because the car had a flat. Her response was, "You can't?" Um, yeah, flat tire?! :)

She took the girls to pick pumpkins and apples yesterday and didn't notice anything, oh well.

Bad start to the week. :(

1. just got mine repaired

hit a MAJOR pot hole. Not only did it kill the tire, but it wrecked the rim. New tire, new rim $800 and it's on a mazda! WTF!

2. Ouch

:( I don't need that expense right now, but then again, who does?

3. $800 for just a tire and rim?

Whats the thing made of 24kt Gold?
I can put four tires and rims on an Accord for that.

4. I know

my old toyota would cost half that to get 4 new tires on it.
This is a sports car and it was repaired at the dealer. The car has those wide tires that run about $250 each. Then, of course, you have to add the sensor valve for another $100 and then the rim. They then told me I needed to replace all the tires. I told them to forget it, I would buy them elsewhere. The service rep kind of laughed and said she didn't blame me and recommended Costco. So I'm looking.
