    Tire Meets Rock= Not Good Outcome!

    I was driving home from work this afternoon and they are building our Walmart SuperCenter and there is alot of **** on the roads.....Well there was a ford Truck in front of me and all of the sudden a rock hurls out from under the truck and right into the path of my tire I had no time to swerve or anything.....I hit it sounded like i had gotten shot...(the rock was a size of a baseball) I made it home and the tire is now flat..jacked my car up rotated the wheel..No Hole....No sound of leaking air..my buddy told me i may have broken one of the bands or wires inside of the tire....I am going to take it to the shop in the am...has anyone had this happen or know what too do YES I DID SEARCH...I am in tears......I cant go anywheres...Someone Please Help Me......

    damn that sux. Hopefully its a quick fix.

    I have heard of tires doing that before, (once on my dad's trailer a LONG time ago) and we had to replace the tire. Hopefully its a quick fix for you.

      Could've been a pinch flat, happened to me on a bike once, the tire itself was fine.

        I direct you to my own tire vs pothole thread

        similar enough.

        Check for cracks in the rim. Best case senerio is that the tire came off the rim and now its back on.

          its possible that you cracked your rim as well... i had a rim that incountered a similar experience and had a hairline crack that allowed all the air to escape in 20minutes of sitting... driving i could see even less time

              If your chrome wheels are cracked, consider it a blessing.

                              It was the chrome gods sending you that signal.... "It's time to let the chrome go....."

                              lol


                              yeah, you may have cracked the rim. In that case ... bah .. just get rid of them. You could fix it if you wanted to though.
