Unhappy Flat Tire In Socal =[

Hey you guys, im down here in la jolla and I got 2 read two flat tires!! I got one on the grape vine, just blew out and I got another right in front of the ucsd exit, both tires had 80% tread left, no clue how they blew out...

If anyone can hook me up with some extra tires or spares, maybe we can work something out... as you can probably guess this was not in the road trip budget.. so any help is appreciated thanks.

Blew out as in the tire shredded? Or just a nail puncture?

I have a spare 18x9 inch tire right now...but I'm in San Gabriel.

Good luck.

I have a 255/45 R17 tire, about 95% tread left. The only problem is a tiny part of the bead kinda got ripped (it' still attached, just... kinda dangling). It's something I would THINK repairable...but discount tire refused to mount it onto my wheel (it's strange because it WAS mounted on my wheel before, and it was fine. It's after they took off that tire that they told me they couldn't put it back on).
