Recently we had some bad luck with our wheels.
I took Aimee's car in for an oil change on Saturday afternoon. When I got there they showed me a nail that was lodged in the left rear tire. Unfortunately it was in a spot that wouldn't hold a patch and so we had to get Aimee a new tire to go with her oil change.
When I came home I saw my Blazer sitting in the garage with a flat left rear tire. I pulled out a nasty piece of very sharp metal that had lodged in one of the grooves. I drove around on the spare for a few days before I went in for my oil change.
On Tuesday I got a call from Aimee who was on the side of the road with more tire trouble. Apparently she picked up a bolt somewhere along the way and it lodged itself into one of her tires - not the new one.
When I took my car in I brought Aimee's tire with me. They were able to patch up both tires while I got my oil change and now we are both back on the road at full strength.
