this was all on the freeway doing 75-80 too. scared the **** out of me. not sure if i need a new wheel now, since i drove at least 100yds on the blown tire due to people not letting me pull over to the right. luckily i did it safely and was able to change the donut on in about 20min. when i went to put the lugs on, the lug wrench would get stuck and chew the top of the stock lugs off. thanks nissan!!!

re-11. im pretty sure i have to replace both tires, and a wheel. god what an expensive flat. and yea, thanks...i nearly lost it, but was able to slow down in time

btw, for anyone who ever has to drive on the donut. my god, if it isnt obvious, drive slow. i was on 880S going 50mph with my hazards on. it felt like the car was going to veer off in any direction due to the roads.
