If u ordered from tirerack.com and got the hazard insurance, it a free repair or replacement.

If it's not on the sidewall, u could go with a plug. Surprisingly they still do plugs.

On the bright side, the tires are new so you only have to replace one and not 2.

Let us get a pic when able. Was it a blow out or a slow leak?

Slow leak but driving on it caused sidewall damage which means it has to be replaced.

Let me know how you do.

Darketch 06-12-2015 07:16 PM

@Ngo...I'm ready to hit the "go" button on UpRev Osiris Standard. Whats your schedule look like? Are you available next weekend the 19th - 22nd to help me out if it gets here by then?

Voice59 06-12-2015 07:52 PM

You're gonna tune your car yourself?

bkngo 06-12-2015 07:52 PM

Adrian, of course buddy! I'm dropping my son off at summer camp next Sunday in the morning. Other than that yes I'm available whenever. It is super easy. It takes less than 10 minutes.

Make sure you download Osiris and Cipher from the UpRev website onto your laptop. If not I have it on my laptop.

I just uploaded a new map from UpRev yesterday and it drives even smoother now. Tech support told me to do one more data log with this map and then they can make final adjustments... then it's dyno time :)

Voice59 06-12-2015 07:54 PM

Oh ok...you're just loading maps. I thought you were actually in there tuning.

sorry to hear Kai... hopefully you have road hazards insurance on that tire. I bought my wife some new Good Year Eagle Sports and it is great... I would love to purchase some summer tires but this she is my DD so winter is coming lol...

Voice59 06-12-2015 07:58 PM

It's all good... I think I might be getting a deal on some tires.

If the Warriors would've started Andre from the beginning the series would've been completely different. He's the only person on that team that can guard Lebron.

Darketch 06-13-2015 08:52 PM

Naw, looked like the speed limit, and I only saw the rear.

Darketch 06-13-2015 08:55 PM

I ordered the uprev then read that folks weren't having success with throttle response as it is locked for 2013+. I cancelled and need to do more research before I dope half a grand on something that has no impact.

I've been researching some UPREV tuners in the Seattle area since that's where I'm headed. I want to find a consistent tuner/garage I can take my car thus the reason why I'm holding off from anyone touching my car in Virginia/Maryland except myself...
