What did you do for your ZHP/ BMW / MINI today? #2

[1 M Mike]

You California boys are crazy! As much as I miss the good driving roads, I do NOT miss the cost of living there...

Ha! As a native Californian not only could I not afford the cost of living while there, I also couldn't afford the cost of dieing there either!

Managed to find a 3/8" screw Saturday on a back road between Timbukone and Timbuktwo and had to limp to a garage to get a "Hillbully Plug" (HP). The M Mobility Kit compressor was a life saver, the goo was worthless.

First flat I've had in at least fifteen years.

Ordered a new PS2 at Discount Tire today. I was floored when the service adviser informed me I was getting a $100 credit from Michelin as well, which is based on the residual of the tire remaining (7/32 tread remaining). Hats off to Michelin for this program.

The below pic shows the actual offending screw in a sipe just above the HP.

Also ordered 3 Dyna Plug kits, one for each horseless carriage.

^meh... You learn to deal with cost of living. Car budget gets crunched, but it can be managed.

Having grown it up in CA, I gotta wonder... Are things really that much cheaper in other states?

^In a word, Yes

^ Fixed.



Personally, I have come to the sad realization that I'm paying *almost* the cost of living as California, yet I live in an inferior location (Connecticut). WTH am I doing here???

Mike, did you mean to type 8/32?

I discovered a slash in the sidewall of my Pilot Sport last night so I took it to a brand new Discount Tire this morning by my house. The service was awesome and I was very impressed with their facilities. Anyways, the tech told me that my tire tread measured at 7/32 and thus I did not qualify for the discount as 8/32 was the cut off. Wonder what's up with that?

I replaced my old tire with the newest Pilot Sport AS 2 model.
