I'm widely regarded as an asshole believe it or not, so the list of suspects is long. What does make it suspicious is I picked it up very close to home.

Put Fix-A-Flat in and with advice from both Eric The Car Guy on YouTube and my tire shop, I drove it with the nuts loose. It held air, so I just cinched them down and filled the air tank. I have my inverter and tank, I can make it one way or another!

Pinching a loaf, then headed that way. The farm is on the way and I just happen to have a set of meat eaters awaiting placement. Was going to sell them, but I'll just run them off now!

I had these tires already. They have maybe 10K miles left on them. I had planned on selling them and never got around to it. Paid $60 for a mount and balance on this set rather than pay 3xs that for a new tire. Plus that set was going to need replaced in 15K miles or so. For $10, I had them dispose of them rather than me fool with selling 3 tires. I'll put new set of shoes on her in the spring.
