was doing a u-turn at a dirt road on little park road, and wheel went into a hole that i could not see and hit edge of pavement and popped. fortunately i had 2 tires in the shed. one with lotsa tred from 2017 and one with tread that matched almost exactly from 2015. took it over to discount tire during covid-19 apocalypse/cleaning frenzy and was the only person there. they mounted and balanced the tire for a total of $30and i was on my way.

235-45-17 Pirelli Cinturato Strada Sport AS – $151 each
$100 + $70 rebates if i get 4. it was better to get 4.
put onto new set of BBS rims
they noted right rear rim was bent. left rear took a lot of weight but was fine. front to took very little weight.
while backing out of the rack where tires were installed, the right front centercap fell out. gary able, getting tires next to me, noticed it and picked it up and handed it to me. i went back in and asked the manager what they do in this situation. he looked a bit online but was confused. i said i had connections. he said if i could find a replacement, they would reimburse me for it. (lawrence ortega, manager, and bo)
