At one time I thought destroying tires on certain things was impossible.


Then I started sharing vehicles with my girlfriend. We have replaced so many tires its ridiculous. Buy your tires through tirerack, they offer FREE road hazard replacements now!

I know this was a probably a traumatic experience for you... but if you could put yourself back in that moment, we may be able to help you identify exactly what happened.

Think back, and try to remember what you saw right before that moment when you hit the rock...

Is this what you ran over:




If that doesn't look familiar, maybe this next one will. I do see that you're from San Francisco... Was this the bastard that popped your tires?



If not, there's nothing more we can do for you. Hovercraft may be an option for you in the future...

In the pictures alone there are mysteries galore that just do not line up with the load of crap story we are given:
1) Why is the already a tire laying on the ground in front of the car?
2) Why steel rims? (That appear to be 16")
3) Why is the car exactly in the same spot after the "dealership ended up replacing both my tires and rotating the new ones onto the back and other ones onto the front". (And the stock rim is laying on the ground)
4) Why does the damage on the left look like something flat, straight and sharp was shoved in there? (Damage on right looks like it is from running flat)
5) What are the odds of running into 4 people that hit the same rock (and then mentioned to a stranger) it in San Francisco? (Is San Fran much smaller a town then I always pictured)


I am calling total bullshit and no longer have any sympathy for Squady or whoever he really is
The two photos of the car are obviously 'shopped. Look closely at the wheels on the car.
The only reason to do that, is if this whole story never happened.
So, we have a troll. It's probably not even his car.

It was funny while it lasted, Squady, but it's time to quit now.

More than likely he still has stock coolant. However, it might not even be his since the mechanic didn't find anything and there's no warning on his dash. I would inspect it throughout the week just to be safe.

Dude I'd love to take your call at Toyota Roadside; funny thing is I have yet to have a call from an FR-S or BRZ owner...
