God I hate crap on the road & Semi's!

So Im cruising up an on ramp (60 mph) and merging onto the interstate. I merge in behind a semi and decide to get in the left lane and get up to my usual cruise of 75. Except as soon as I start to pass him bam big piece of sh** in the middle of the road, didnt even have time to blink and my left front tire ate it. The sidewall is completely shredded with 2-3 good rips in it.

Poor 2 month old Yoko Neova





Who wants to loan me $230 ?

There was a big cardboard piece in the road on my way home, everyone was freaking out at the last second and stuff, I saw what it was (could clearly tell nothing was in it or behind it or anything) so i ran it over at 80mph and it got thrown a bit to the side so i helped =P

I absolutely love them; that is why I am so sad this happened. Other than the expense I have to wait 2-3 days to get a replacement I'd imagine. That is the only downside to these tires, TireRack doesnt have road hazard on them.
