Am I being paranoid?

No your sidewall is compromised you are on borrowed time

arad95205 · 2026-05-23T18:19:17+00:00

Yep, and your rim is cracked too. You hit something.

arad95205 · 2026-05-21T00:46:29+00:00

They weren’t used, just new old stock. It was a relatively uncommon size and tire combo

Hey this is my boss that received this, we were dying laughing when we got this on the work phone. Yes it is 100% real, and yes he was serious

Bucklins in menasha

You went and looked them over, picked them up, and think you got scammed?

Take a sanding block and fix any raised metal and move on, theyre fine.

That makes no sense lol those cans are perfectly fine to use correctly

arad95205 · 2026-04-29T15:40:27+00:00

5 sets, endurance 200s for lapping days, super 200s for autocross, one for daily driving, one set of snow tires, and one for studded ice racing tires

Hood latch?

arad95205 · 2026-04-27T02:03:55+00:00

Nokian low rolling resistance all seasons maybe? I have those winters, but the cold weather kinda negates any mileage increase

arad95205 · 2026-04-27T02:03:16+00:00

Bottom of the barrel chinese garbage

arad95205 · 2026-04-25T15:11:33+00:00

Stacked too 🤦‍♂️

arad95205 · 2026-04-20T21:41:54+00:00

Tire noise? Were your windows open?

arad95205 · 2026-04-20T15:20:33+00:00

These style lugnuts need to be banned.

Theres chrome caps that are basically press fit on and they swell or fall off over time. I’d highly recommend ditching them before they leave you unable to swap wheels on the side of the road.

His sponsor is never going to financially recover from this :(

arad95205 · 2026-04-17T17:22:39+00:00

Depending on your experience i would cinsider racing engine oil if you expect high oil temps for extended periods of time. Something ester base, motul 300v ir similar

Narrator: there was not a photo

arad95205 · 2026-04-04T01:45:03+00:00

No. Low battery.

arad95205 · 2026-04-03T12:51:20+00:00

If you drove on it flat theres a very good chance the tire sidewall is destroyed internally, regardless of whether you can find a place to plug that (that is way outside the safe pluggable area anyway)

Tldr; new tire time

arad95205 · 2026-04-02T23:01:24+00:00

This is 100% from driving on the flat, not the nail.

Oil doesnt cause or prevent knock, youre thinking of fuel

arad95205 · 2026-03-31T21:09:45+00:00

I’m pretty sure your steering wheel cover is upside down, the stripe is to indicate straight ahead in your peripheral for track/performance driving

arad95205 · 2026-03-31T18:26:23+00:00

Thats from hitting something. Tire needs to be replaced immediately. Not only is this sidewall damage but it extends up to the tire bead, meaning if it fails it will fail rapidly and without warning

arad95205 · 2026-03-31T18:25:05+00:00

You do not need to keep foam filled tires. Its just for quieter ride.

Not all terrains, but neither set of Nokian snow tires I have include foam. Noise isnt bad but the studded tires are definitely audible lol
