Default No spare? I'll keep mine.

First post, but thought I'd give you a "Glad it wasn't me" feeling. Driving to gym, not more than 1 minute from my house, and then PSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS with the rear end dropping quickly. No idea what's in the tire because it's in there pretty good and since I think the tire is wasted, I'll leave it. Never made it to the gym, but did familiarize myself with my jack. Oh by the way, I've owned my H3 for about 8 days. Good times!

Wow, that's really too bad; once you lose a tire like that, you need to just replace them all with a set of 35's and a torsion bar crank!! Trust me, spend enough time in these forums and you'll be doing it anyway--so just do it and enjoy your H3!!

Welcome to the forums.

Nice piece of shrapnel in your street tires. Price some real rubber for that thing before you dump it on another Grandmas' tire.

Ha ha Doc. Grandma tires or not, that was a lot of tread to trash. You'll be pleased to know I did not get a replacement. I went ahead and replaced 4 tires with 265 BFG AT's. Not real original or exciting, but I've ran them before and they worked out nicely. Despite being the the millionth one to put them on, I may post a pic of them on. I'm like a little kid with a shiny new bike, in that even though you all may have seen one like mine before, I'd never seen a tactical edition before I bought one, and I want to show it off. At least around here, it's pretty unique and is looking pretty good IMO, especially now. Hope to crank the t-bars later this morning, as tm28 pointed out, and take a photo or two.

Wow! Thats a good chunk! Make sure you replace that tire, not a good idea to patch it.
