Super dangerous, that will blow on the expressway. You've been lucky it hasn't burst already!!

 

That’s crazy. A new set of tires at Walmart is $500 installed, if you can’t afford $500 to ensure both yours and your passengers’ safety this is not the right job for you.

 

And here we were led to believe you can make good money in Boston. 😆

"With Massachusetts’ 2025 pay floor of $33.48 per engaged hour and 50 % deadhead miles, a driver’s net earnings are roughly $8–12 per total clock hour before any income tax—after costs and that figure does not include tips." -ChatGPT

The minimum wage in MA is currently $15 an hour. 😆

Am I making any sense yet?

 

I don't know. The tires could be good for water skiing.

 

When I was traveling through Ohio and doing a food delivery pickup at a Chipotle in Athens, I backed into a parking spot, leaving my front tires cocked to the left. When I returned to my car, I noticed that the inside of my left front tire was worn down to the steel belt!

Because I didn't have enough money to cover gas, camping, food, beer, and a new tire, I just kept working, though I turned off Lyft so I wouldn't get anyone else hurt in the event of a blowout, which I was mentally prepared for at any time.

Drove about 100 more miles that night doing food delivery, and the next day found a used tire 20 miles away for $30, installed. When the repair guy saw how warn my tire tread was on the inside, he said,

"You's lucky!".

Personally, I think it was more than luck! If I hadn't parked the way I had to pick up that Chipotle order, I'd never notice my tire tread was so low, because I couldn't see it when I parked normally, without my wheels cocked. God works in mysterious ways! 🙏

 

Or you’re just unaware of most things.

 

Those tire manufacturers said a set of new tires will last 70-80k miles. In reality, it is about 40-45k (down to a few cm of tread).

Every 1.5-2 year, you have to change tires. Brakes are the same. It is one of those things that you have to change almost every 2 year.

EV cars are better than gas cars because there's less maintenance.

 

Tires wear out faster on an EV due to heavier weight vehicle.

 

Those tires are fine - everyone knows that you don't change tires until the metal wear indicator belts under the tread start to show through.

 

That's impressive that someone could wear their tires down so much but so evenly.

 

So glad i stopped driving,see no reason to come back!

 

hmmm... things that never happened for $100

 

Once, I tested how fast tires wear on a front wheel drive car without rotating. While the front tires wore faster, the rear tires lasted a long time, something like 10,000 or 20,000 miles past the warranty mark.
