Default Finally broke the 10 bolt...............got rear ended!

Broke the 10 bolt and got rear ended today by someone going around 60-65mph. I was getting ready to pull over beacuse of the heavy rain that turned into snow/ice when I caught a patch of black ice and spun out. So I was able to move my car to the side and call the police since I hit the guard rail. Ok, my bad some bodywork and a leason learned my fault. Well, I was getting ready to get out of my car when I saw this guy catch the same black ice and clipped my left rear quarter panel. Force pushed me foward and cracked the front right fender after bouncing off the guard rail. "Right place at the right time". I'm just glad I saw that car coming before I got out.

They are good tires in my experiences with them. Had about 15k on them up until now (lol); and the tread was still there like "new". Good dry traction, good in rain, and very manageable in the snow for how big the tire is. They were a little hard to use at the track like in my sig pic but not terrible. Thats all I have to say about them.
