Default Need help with vandalized tC

Well last night I get out of class and realize I have a flat tire, no biggie change the tire and throw the donut on, go to the tire shop this afternoon and the guy asks me who did u ____ off cause they stabbed your tire six times. Long story short I'm really mad I just got those tires 2 weeks ago and this isn't the first time, I want to set up some cameras like on the inside of my car but not so sure maybe there is some better ideas out there any input is welcome thanks.

BEST idea i got for you ? park somewhere different if you live in an apt. complex , if you live in a house .. put a clifford with motion sensors & have a bat ( or shotgun ) by your side :]

THIS IS MADNESS ..Im not so sure about confronting the vandal, that might end bad. It could be that you are a target of a tC hater. Do you happen to see any distinctive hondas parked around where you park?

No Hondas I think, just a really loud Mitsubishi lancer (not evo) but I'm not trying to point fingers right now I would rather catch him then rough him/her up a little bit, but thanks for the ideas guys, maybe like some nitrous purge motion detector from under the wheel wells with a lighter at the end haha

That freaking sucks I hate ppl that mess with others cars. Someone slashed all the tires on my buddys vette, and vette tires cost a pretty penny.

Oh btw nitrous isnt flamable

Seems like a possible indication the person must be obsessed, or at least they really HATE that tire. I mean really, 1 or 2 punctures just weren't enough, they had to stab it 6 freakin' times!?! Too crazy a person to confront, imo, try to get 'em on camera & give the evidence to the cops.

i GOT the best idea .

put C4 in your tires , especially in that same tire .

arm it every time you leave your car unattended .

i'll bet my tC that'll be the last tC tire he'll ever stab .

Stick an NRA sticker on your car, that will ward out most people.
