My 1st tow experience....
 
So I happened to wake up to a flat tire... My insurance covers the towing, and the tires have a warranty, free fix, or they buy another new tire. Before i continue i would like to say how rare of a experience i had. In a good way..

Starts like this... SIRI call my Allstate Insurance company, BAM! Siri call discount tire. BAM!. Siri call towing company. BAM! I just got my iPhone 4s 2 days ago. SIRI was amazing in the process.

So Allstate said insurance covers $100 / 5 mile tow for free, so i was in luck. Very helpful and nice.

The towing company had a flat bed truck come out, the had 2 boards to help the lift, the Z went on smooth and easy and got off smooth and easy. Took like 5 mins to get the my tire shop....The tower was very nice and did a great job.

Ive heard and seen some horror stories on tows. I felt lucky to have everything handle and fixed in about 2 hours.

The rear tire 295/30 Michelin Pilot Super Sports 2, it had a nail in it. They patched the inside, so far it rides normal. So YAY for a rare really fast, professional flat tire fix.

Wow that's awesome! I was expecting a horror story lol, as they usually tend to be. Michelin PS2 would've been expensive to replace. Also nice free iPhone advertisement. :tup:

I have had good experiences so far with my towing experiences, mostly because the guys who have done my towing work with the Nissan dealership and tow a lot of low sport cars.
Usually the ones you have to worry about are when you get stuck out on a random road and they just pull up, but if you go through your insurance or similar type service they have towing companies that they recommend.

Thats great to hear, some of the towers get a bad rep for not knowing how to tow such low vehicles. But FLATBEDS with the wooden plank things went sooooo smooth, if i ever need to get towed again, im requesting a flat bed.
