A few months ago, I posted regarding my experiences with over-inflating my tires.
I ended up having a flat tire due to a ruptured valve stem. I soon found out that not one, but two of my tires had a split in the valve stem.
The maximum PSI rating is set at 44PSI, and I was running 55 PSI.
When I had the rupture, I found out that the actual tire pressure was closer to 60 -70 PSI due to an inaccurate tire guage, and I thought I really screwed up.
Previously, I had done some work under the car with a partial belly pan. I covered my A arms and unbeknowest to me, had ripped my CV boots in the process.
I felt so stupid that day - not only had I blown my tires, but I ripped my CV boots by doing something stupid.
I convinced myself that I was too stupid to pretend like I could be a part of this forum.
I even got a ticket for hypermiling. ( 3:45 A.M. coasting to a stop light. The officer said I didn't use my blinker.This is my first ticket ever.)
Then .... this came in the mail :
Im back in the game
