Nail in tire already!!!

[Bob The Builder]

Walking by my truck I look down at the right rear tire and there is a nail head!!. Well, there you go. Truck is broke in now!! It's in a good spot, easily repairable.

I have the Pirelli A/T tires. Gotta make those bad boys last a year. No big deal, really. I mean what better place to discover any issue than in your own driveway.

It happen to the Falkens too. Picked ours up after the roadtrip on our way to drop the truck off at the port. Not 100% sure but there was a guy we hollared at on the San Diego freeway with his side mounted toolbox open and bouncing out tools on the highway. We passed him and alerted him, but I he got us with a deckmate screw. Didnt notice it till we were back on Maui and Josi got a weird tire pressure alert on her phone. When we got it on island the tire was down to 20 psi. Sprayed some soap on it and found the culprit. My favorite local tire shop in Wailuku fixed it for $50 for me. I figured for my wifes sake, paying a guy to do something he does 5 times a day vs me doing it once every 5 years. 7 weeks later still holding fine.

Is it true that the tire magnets lower the rolling resistance by riding the earths magnetic field?

2 new tires here someone put screws in the sidewalls of both right tires. Didn't go flat but I caught it. Security used video to figured out who it was and they are no longer going to be a problem

I live in Florida, where all around here the homes are 15 to 35 years old. Time for new roofs ! You can't drive in these neighborhoods without getting roofing nails from trucks dropping them. I think the tires dealers pay thr roofers a comission. I've had 3 so far.

LOL... I had a screw in my right rear within 25 miles of picking up my truck.

I feel you. 4k miles in and I got the quick deflate mod. I know I'll get flamed, but I just threw a plug in it and it has been fine so far. Going to change them out soon for winter anyway. These Pirellis don't inspire confidence when it is wet so I can't imagine that they will be any good in the slush/ice/snow

I've had a plug in one of my OE Michelin Primacy for about 4,000 miles now. It's holding fine and I think it'll stay that way until it's worn out.

I really enjoy having FordPass for this, because when I think about checking the pressure, I just open the app and look.
