I bet you some hater loosened the lug nuts on the tire and later on put a screw into the tire itself. 2 hit combo.

When I had my Ranger I walked out of a friends house after a long night. I don't know why but I looked at one of the wheels (performance rims for a truck) Noticed a lugh nut was loose. I went around and found out some one loosend all of them. I never been in that area, not a nice thing to do to some one. Just cause I had a nice truck with some work done to it. Kinda of like how I got keyed the first week I got it at the mall.


Allso any work you do go back and retighten things later. Specialy if you don't have a torque wrench.
