OEM Tires: How Long They Have Lasted Me!

[ilikerice]

I am not a statistics person, but that 1 in 250,000 chance you speak of is probably with all tires... I would think you are increasing your chances dramatically if you only used bald, 7 year old tires. I am sure you will have a better chance of getting a blow out than getting hit by lighting in your case.

I really think you missed the entire Insurance point I was trying to make, but whatever. Don't care. Not worth trying to explain it again.

I was having a bit of fun writing my little short story on my lunch break yesterday. I got carried away. You asked for our opinions and haven't read a single reply thinking this was a good idea, but in the end, you will still do what you want. Good luck with your adventures. I am glad I don't live anywhere near you, but not to say there isn't at least one of your types living in my city also.
