No, you would'nt. You might want too but you would'nt For real.

Tires are to easy to replace. Now if he keyed/scratched your car.











You still would'nt shoot anyone. Not worth it.

Are you sure you didn't run over the screws.

Ever try to take a screw driver and screw in screws inside a tire?

i'd say it was a 90% chance you just ran over a screw and picked it up off the street. Not saying someone didn't vandalize it, but chances someone did are usually fairly low.

Like i've had my RX8 for 3 - 4 days now and i've already picked something up in my tire. Got in the car today and tire pressure warning light came one. Checked, had what looked like a peice of wire in the tire, like half an inch lower and i probably would have needed a new tire because it woulda been in the side wall. **** happens, just be happy someone didn't jack your wheels or beat in the car with a bat which happened to my sister's Corolla S when she was at school. Smashed part of the body and windsheild.

Tires are an easy fix, and fairly cheap compaired to other fixes. I'd rather someone punch a nail through my sidewall in my tire than to key the **** outta the car or kick it or something.

how about backing off? All you're doing is throwing weak *** complaints at people for no reason. The kid did nothing wrong. The way you act seems less mature based on what I've seen in this thread.

Sucks that happened to your tires. Someone dinged my door a while back and I could tell where they tried to rub it off and left. Hope everything goes well.

By the way... if you replace one tire, you know you have to replace the other side at least, right?

Someone told me a story about a guy that dinged his door while he arrived at his car in a parking lot. The guy agreed to write a report about it and all, but apparently his wife was stunned at that, as a door ding was something that just happens, and you can't take responsibility for it... That's provoking if you ask me.

Hope I don't have any dings for a LONG time

Makes you wonder how many doors she's dinged over the years.

Last winter my wife had her fender hit and damaged by a teenaged girl at the mall who stepped up to the plate and went to the trouble of not only reporting it but having the cops track my wife down while she was shopping. Then the girl got home and her mom got involved. The mom was rude and pissed off at my wife about the whole thing. Her insurance paid without drama, but we knew that if the mom had been there she probably would've had her daughter just drive off.

I'd hate to be the person who gets hit some way, and the people just shrug it off. You don't mess with another persons car, it's an unwritten rule!

kids these days are so spoiled.

if u spank them, they can call cops to arrest ur ***.

thats why we have so many school shooting. I dont see anywhere else on earth has this problem.

oh yeah I think last week, couple of kids in NYC took their baseball bats out and starts beating people on the streets for no reason, then pull drivers out of their cars and beat them up. all got arrested. they said they're just trying to be like the guy in GTA. I was like. wtf ? these kids cant even tell between game and real world. ******* losers. Where did their parents go ? Yes I know next thing is that ppl gonna blame video games. Sorry but I've been thru ALL kinds of so called "violent" video games. U dont see me go around with a baseball bat and starts beating ppl. or take a gun and starts shooting.
