Default Blown Tire- Buy 1 or 2 new ones ???

I just blew a tire and I am wondering if I should get 1 or 2 new tires. I feel like your suppose to get 2 new tires and not 1 at a time but I am not sure. Anyone know anything about this?[/align]Or should I go online and try to buy a used one?[/align][/align]Thanks[/align]

How many miles are on the tires? If it's a lot, then you should buy 2 tires, IMO.

In January I blew a right rear got it replaced (Just 1 tire) then just last week picked up a nail in that same new tire but on the side of it and had to replace it again. They measured my tred deepth Driver side and recomended just one new tire for the Right side.

Right now just buy one new tire. Thenset the one youbought to replace the blown tire in storageincase this situation ever rises again and probably it will.

Get the new solid tires that dont get flats.
You can wear them right down to the rims.
