Alright guys here comes the sad story part.

So I was driving back from a viewing of one of my girlfriends close family friends that had past away and it was about 10pm or so, so it was a little dark out. Anyways, there was a dead dog in my lane so I swerved to avoid running the dog over (yes i was going the speed limit) and I guess I ran something over. I got about a mile down the road and started hearing a sound coming from my front passenger side tire that sounded like a plastic bag was stuck to my tire with gum or something and I was running it over over and over again. The sound would progress as i sped up and slow down as i .... slowed down. So i pulled over around the corner just to get out and check if something was wrong. So i look at the front tire and well, nothing was wrong there, but i noticed my rear passenger side tire was flat! I remembered that RX-8s come with compressors so i got that bad boy out and hooked it all up and started airing it up. I waited about 30 seconds and noticed the tire was not inflating at all, so i turned the compressor off and heard air leaking out of my tire. I swore for a few minutes to let off some steam and then called AAA. Got towed home and parked my car. Well people, there it sits until i can get a new tire for it. I would RATHER buy a whole set of tires (even if used) from someone on here than buy ONE brand new tire again for 200 dollars. So if anyone has some tires for sale LMK. (YES I DID A SEARCH. I pmed a few people and waiting for them to get back to me. Just posting here for a few other possible people that might have something.) JUST REMEMBER!!! My car will sit until i get a new tire . Thanks in advance. Life sucks without my 8.

I have a single OE Bridgestone tire, probably 80+% tread remaining

also a few OE Dunlop tires, I'd have to verify the tread depth

it will be cheaper than buying a whole set
