I had just bought new tyres 6 mths ago, and they wont replace just the one worn tyre, I had to buy a pair at minimum. So flat broke this weekend Im gutted I dont even feel like driving the thing anymore. Lesson for all: keep up with your regular wheel alignments and rotations. Every 6 months or whenever you get an oil change, rotate your tyres. If your car develops any alignment issues, attend to it immediately dont let it slide until a time thats convenient for you or it may end up costing you a whole lot more!

I had problems with car pulling left too, I had 225 45 18 on the stock rims and went to 3 different places and had 5 wheel allignments in 6 months inc. pedders and no one could fix it. The printout suggested it should be ok but it would pull. Now I have the new wider wheels with the same rubber it's perfect.

Cleaned my car, and then discovered new scratches. -.-
The driver-side door handle's scratched right across, like half the paint has been scratched off and my right headlight is scratched too.
Got a tiny scratch on the side of my front bumper now as well. Sad days.
Not sure where they came from, so I'll ask my dad about it considering he borrowed the car on Thursday. I'm thinking someone scratched it at a parking lot or something.
