If I have to patch another f'ing tire I'm going to have a melt down. This will be the third nail I pull out of as many tires. What's up? Are the Pirelli's magnets for nails?
I've never had to patch tires this many times in my life. I've parked two other cars in my garage and have never driven over a nail.
I park in a garage associated with a children's hospital, so I have a hard time believing someone would put nails under my tires.. and each time it's a different type of nail.
At least I know the tire pressure sensors work.

Well when I've ever had them it's always by a construction site, either building a home or lazy carpenters that won't clean up their truck bed. Anything like that in your area?

 

Nope.. can't figure it out.

 

That really blows. I know we do alot of repairs at my work mainly for real estate people. They're always at construction sites. Nobody on your street drives a work type of truck?

 

I have also had problems with nails---2 in the side walls--- had to get new tires , astheDealer would not patch them. The 3 nail was in the wear area, so they could patch the tire. I never had so many nail punctures with any other car. We had new roofing done here in Florida , and that seems to be the source of the nails --- Be gladyou didn't have to buy new tires !!!!

 

That could get expensive!

I'm such an idiot.. they are building a new hotel by this gas station I go to.. I sometimes take this way home.. and drive right by it. It was a small self-tapping sheet metal screw... Guess where I probably got it...

Can't believe I didn't realize this earlier... Well looks like I going to go a different way until they finish the hotel.

 

Ive had 2 nails, 1 in my summer tires, 1 in my snow tires, it can happen to anyone, anywhere. Just your "luck".
We do about 5-10 flat repairs a day, its pretty common. Screws, nails, metal, glass, Ive seen it all.
