Doomed tire!

So when I got my FRS from a guy who ended up needing a more practical ride he had curbed the back right tire at like 2k miles and made some cuts in the side wall "no biggie" is what the guys at discount tire said.

About 500 miles after I got the car and at about 9k miles on the car I stated having to put a in the tire every couple of weeks so I figured maybe the cuts were starting to leak. I go to discount tire and the say there is a nail in the backside so they fix it for free. I'm thinking sweet dodged another bullet.

Then today at like 10.8k I see a nail in the same tire right on the shoulder where it can't be repaired properly. I think that tire was just meant to die final destination style lol this time I had to replace it.

I'm on a road trip so I can't wait for the primacy hp to come on special order. Some I had to get the primacy mxm4 on both back wheels =( 360$ and in an hour and a half ill be back on the road!
