Tire slashed

molamann · 11-30-2009, 08:25 PM

So I got by 10 months without anyone vandalizing my car(other than this Came back from class and... )

Anyways, I was just catching a smoke with my friend next to my Z about 10 minutes ago and I noticed someone had slashed my front passenger tire. At the moment, I'm hoping the ******* didn't slash it deep enough because I didn't get a TPMS warning earlier today. However, I could be wrong if it had been slash just minutes prior to me noticing it. :/

Pics!

Any gouge in the sidewall deems replacement unfortunately.

Bastard. What is wrong with people?

I once slashed my own tire on my old car by scraping against a rock in my driveway.

who did you piss off?

Sorry to hear that and hope Karma will catch up this bastard. Where did you park in LA?

How childish. You know I grew up with not a lot of extras but it has never once crossed my mind to ruin someone elses property out of jealousy or amusement. Karma has already caught up with this person and they will no doubt be an insecure loser their whole life long that won't amount to much.

Wow, I bet the jerk-off that did it feels like so much of a man right now. Sorry to hear that man. I guess its better than getting keyed albeit not by much.

Not gud.

It happened to my accord 4 years ago. Went from school and came back home and had a slashed tire.

Haters...

wtf dude, you're having some crappy luck. Sorry mate.

HapHazard · 11-30-2009, 11:15 PM

Terrible. It's the worst feeling when you discover someone has vandalized your car.

kenchan · 11-30-2009, 11:47 PM

if it makes you feel better, i have slashed a brand new RE050A PP a few years ago with no more than 5miles on the tire. glass or something on the road. i didn't lose air but i heard thump thump thump...and sure enough, a good chunk of rubber was flapping on the sidewall...

so, it could've been just an accident.

On the good side, it most likely would be covered by insurance since someone else did it and not wear and tear. That's if your deductible is low enough to make a difference but maybe worth a call.
