| mine was yesterday... i played 18 holes of golf and when i got home and went into the garage to put my clubs away, i noticed that the right rear tire of my car was flat... CRAP! i took the tire off and found that luckily(?) i had a drywall screw puncturing the center tread of the tire. well i put the tire in the back of my truck and went to the local tire shop to get it fixed. fortunately they were able to plug the hole and fix it. i've had four flat tires in my life and three have been in my slk. it there a puncture magnet somewhere in there?

| My first vehicle that I owned was a 1972 VW camper. It came with 4 Continental tires and the spare. All but one of the 4 original tires failed with sidewall failures. I feel your pain. |
