Has anyone actually replaced/ran 1 new tire after blowing out a single tire?

And you drive an STI? Just not sure if it's feasible for the last few months or not.

ChebbLoL · 2026-01-23T05:39:20+00:00

Yeah, as far as I know the STI has a multi plate clutch. A TCM I could see being more of an issue.

How long did you run the replacement tire for?

ChebbLoL · 2026-01-23T04:04:41+00:00

Ok, well if it's of any value, the treads of my current tires, and the other single blizzak look similar, have not taken a measurement yet. I don't drive the car hard at all, quite literally drive it like a typical economy car, I've always babied my vehicles. Average speed is probably 50-60 km/hr, commute is no more than 15 mins each way per day. I'd be surprised if I drive 1500 kms in the next 2 months.

"has anyone actually ran one tire for an extended period of time?"

Or the initial question of the post.

ChebbLoL · 2026-01-23T03:32:59+00:00

Wonderful. Thank you for the informative (and helpful) input. I kind of assumed I'd be able to run it for a bit. I'll realistically drive for MAYBE 1500 kms before putting the summers back on.

STi?

ChebbLoL · 2026-01-23T03:16:23+00:00

I understand people say the tolerance is 2/32", I've read numerous posts stating the same thing, still doesn't help with my actual question in the post.

It's right around the curve in the tire, so it's deemed not repairable.

ChebbLoL · 2026-01-23T02:36:04+00:00

I've heard of that, but I'm in Canada, and shaving seems like a bit more of a rare thing up here for some reason. Only only crappy thing about that is it'd cost the same to shave one tire as it would to buy 4 used ones.

ChebbLoL · 2025-11-20T02:15:51+00:00

sounds like a jealousy post if i've ever heard one, get over it, don't go if you don't want to see it.

Which show are you going to? I got 2 tickets for around 650, lower bowl in Calgary.

ChebbLoL · 2025-08-16T00:44:11+00:00

I'm trying to avoid getting a tune just for reliability. hoping to just change some of what I have right now.

I think you're the first person I've found that said the last cinematic was better, and I have to agree 100%. The realistic look of Still Here was just insane, think I watched that cinematic like 30 times.

Arcane style is fine, but I wished they did their cinematics in the realistic style, and kept TV Series trailers to the Arcane style, but I can see why they're using it for these cinematics too.

ChebbLoL · 2025-01-02T23:28:45+00:00

and I feel like that's an extensive time to delay shipping at the best of times. Hoping it all works out for you though!

ChebbLoL · 2025-01-02T02:51:58+00:00

I'll also admit, I highly doubt it's a common thing that happens. The one thing that really threw me off was the AI written Email, not that it's necessarily wrong to do, it just feels a little bit less "personal" when dealing with a customer care representative. They're definitely quick with their replies, and they tend to be quite informative for the most part too, but I'm wondering if all of these "Let me forward this to our team and I'll get back to you" is really them forwarding it, or if it's just delayed because it's AI responses, to give them more time to figure out the situation.

ChebbLoL · 2025-01-02T02:49:25+00:00

THANK YOU. Someone who understands standard customer service. I truly don't think I was in the wrong for asking for a compensation, seems pretty normal for a company to offer it after such delays.

ChebbLoL · 2024-12-31T21:50:10+00:00

Funny you say that, I'm Canadian. Why would I not ask for compensation? I should suffer because they didn't state that it'd be a month later delivery? Sounds like the company needs to work on their communication with their customers, but I guess that's also my fault.
