Stuipid Safety Test!!

My vic had to go do its SAFETY test today cause i finally finalized the deal with honda to buy out the lease... everything was fine even emmisions (yes even with my NoS) but i failed due to the fact that I have a bulge on my Rear Driver side tire (BOOOERNS) and the rim got scuffed... and i need to replace my passenger wipers LoL... so now i have to buy a tire (mind you my tires are 80 % thread) pretty new... and a new wiper...

SO BOOO-erns to a purchaseof a new tire ... but the positive side is that I get a new set of rims cause the old ones got scuffed!!! YAY!!!

so tomorrow i have to get a new tire put on as well as a wiper and get it back on the road... so I hope this all gets settled with soon cause I wana drive the vic again

You paying for this new set or someone else? As I wouldn't be too happy if I had to, so basically just want clarification.. heck maybe you are being very sarcastic

But good to hear your vic is getting back on the road - I'm sure you missed her

How does your tire get a bulge? Is it excited or something

Thanks for clearing it up .. though if its just scuffed, I'd probably just look to repair/repolish them. But I can understand being tired of the same look. Have fun in doing whichever path makes you the happiest
