I know, I thought it was just one. Towed to the shop, SURPRISE, 3. I have no clue. I know I hit it hard, but I guess I drove over it or something.

Yeah, if you popped 3 tires, you're probably going to need an alignment as well. Something had to have gotten damaged there

I was turning into a parking lot that had a bit of a slope. As I was coming up the slope, I tried to take a right into the parking lot, but they had this long ass, superfluous curb that I couldn't see as I ascended, and...BUMP! SLAM! POW! BANG!
Tire insurance I have wouldn't cover it, so I just got a set of 4 Goodyears for the low, low price of $1,090. Thank God I was able to cover some shit like this this time. Most of my life that would have been an ultra disaster.

The wheels have curb rash, but are not dysfunctional, just a little unsightly.

Three were damaged beyond repair. And when that kid of shit happens, you got to replace all 4 or it end up all uneven.

I get that but you could get a new set for almost half that. Must be some pretty good tires.

Just be sure to relax your muscles since something might have tensed up really bad and you won't notice until weeks from now when treating it will be more involved.

Dang, that sucks. I remember back when I was working 2 jobs and trying to hang out with friends from one of the jobs one night. I was super sleepy. I had worked from 5am to 3:30am and then from 6pm to 10pm, and people from my 2nd job wanted to go to dinner. So I went.

We left the restaurant at about 12:30am. I was exhausted. I got in my car (1993 Toyota Camry, but this was around 2005) and sat there for a bit. I turned the car on and drove forward right over a parking bump. The front end of the car went into the air and slammed back down. The car was never right again after that.

They are good tires, great tires. Good tread, last long time, lifetime warranty for all four tires. I don't fuck around when it comes to tires...except when I'm destroying them >_>. I've learned my lessons in the past. You NEED great tires. It makes the difference...I could go cheaper, but I would GET cheaper, know what I mean...even if I got the entry level the shit still would have been $600+, and then they'll fuck up later soon enough. I like to know that when I'm driving, if something happens, the tires are absolutely not to blame, as much as possible.

Nope, was like 5-8 mph.

Nah that makes sense. I was just worried you got ripped off instead of just choosing to make the investment. I know how it is to have car troubles when money is tight.

There's this curb in the parking lot I work in that has poor lighting and people hit that thing at least once every couple months. Not surprised to get off work and find bumpers and huge oil leaks. Taking out 3 tires, would had thought it would had also destroyed your oil pan.
