Default WARNING if you have michelin P2's

This is the fastest way that I've found to stop a 600 horsepower car...There was less than 95 miles on the tires when I was on my way home and was attacked by a stick, I think the branch fell out of a vette owners yard. I contacted a tire dealer and he told me that he could get me another tire.

FSTENUF,

Are you sure some kids in your neighborhood aren't trying to make some sort of medevil crossbow? I gotta figure some 13-year-old was watching Mythbusters or something and your car just happened to be the next to drive by.

Regards,
Aaron

Clearly a manufacturer defect. I'd demand a replacement.
