Cool Pavlock Performance Saves the day
Well my buddy Bryan came through for me today. I just purchased my first LS1 car this past Wednesday and I bought it missing a spare tire. Well, on the way home from work today I got a flat.....so I called up Bryan and he stopped what he was doing and came and helped me out. He not only brought me a spare tire....but it was a matching Z06 wheel so I don't look like a douchebag driving around. I am not saying that he is a new roadside assistance program but it's the fact that he took time from his work to help me out. Big thanks to my bro Bryan.

Pics of the bullshit that gave me the flat tire......and it's not even a snap on or craftsman.....some jap crap.
