Guess who got a blow out today???
You know, you never really appreciate something until it's gone. This can be said about life, women, cars or just about anything else you have. Guys, you never saw someone move sooooo fast until you saw me putting my chrome back on today! I drove all the way in the fast lane on the way to the tire shop so that people on my side (right side of me) of the highway could not see my embarrassment lol.
She's all better now, just could not believe how bad that spare tire looked but sure did come in handy though!
Just sharing my vent a little, was pretty pissed at the time but felt back to normal once I made the switch back. Might I suggest keeping a pack of wipes in your arm rest to wipe the tire crap, break dust off your hands before getting back in on your leather. Those wipes come in handy more than I ever thought they would also.
Thanks 4 listening. (reading)
Injury
Healed!

RE: Guess who got a blow out today???
I keep an extra tire/rim that matches my bullitts in the trunk
along with a breakover bar with the appropriate size socket
on it. With such fancy rims, that would cost you an arm and
a leg to keep a 5th matching tire and rim in the trunk.
Cudos to the handy wipes idea. Got the light charcoal
interior and dirt stands out bad.

I planed on getting the 5th chrome wheel/tire for just this reason, have not got around to it yet. I am re-doing the trunk to make it more show ready. Audio/Visual, diamond plating and my 5th chrome wheel sitting in the center. (no more carpet cover) When I complete the trunk work I will toss in the 5th wheel.
LOL about the wipes, the tire guys were all like staring out the window as I changed my tired back oogling the stang. Keep a a towel in the trunk for the ground, and when I finished (10 minutes) my clothes were still clean and thanks to those wipes my hands were crud free again. They are only a buck for 25 wipes and they are in every vehicle we own.
