Just my luck, 2 sundays ago I had a puncture on the front drivers side while driving home after taking my g/f to work. I put the spare on which just so happened to be out of air. Pumped it up and away we go.
This morning i drive into work as normal, car handled as normal. No more than 5 mins after ive parked into the car pack and settled at my desk had passed when 1 of our drivers ring up and says that my tyre is flat as a pancake, i say thats impossible i just got in, so i go and check and its my front passenger side thats flat now oh yay oh yay. So i drive into the warehouse (coz its raining lol) and go get the spare out and realise that iv still got the punctured alloy in the boot, oh fcuk, so i gotta get my dad to bring ova a spare that i got lieing around in the garden. gggrrrrrrrr, 2 punctures in 2 weeks, so now i got the front on 13' steelies and the rear on 15' alloys, rude boy car now... Sorry rant ova

I havent had much luck either. Ive just had to put 3 new 215/35/18's on.
One of the fronts blew out, when they was changing it they checked the other front which was shredded on the inside and ready to blow too. They took a day each to come in so had to drive around with a funky space saver and then a couple of days later i got a big nail in one of my rears which couldn't be repaired because it was in the side wall.
