You know, a person would think that a twenty-something year old male would have a bit more "smarts"!............. I suppose NOT!

 

I had a blow out at 70 on the highway... it wasn't fun. Mine wasn't a worn out tread issue, but a debris on the road issue though.

If he didnt take care of it, take care of it for him... with a nail.

 

This thread is just so much BS!

 

While I agree with all that has been posted on this, one actually two things come to mind.
1 what everyone is suggesting is technically illegal. Damage to someone elses property. (Mind you I said I have the same feelings).
Also that will cause hard feelings between you and your stepson.
Two wrongs don't make it right!
But it seems that he is taking care of it so the answer is moot!
Just sayin

 

Hope he gets the tire changed. For his own safety... and perhaps he'll lay off the burnouts and take better care of this one.

Stick a knife in it as quite a few have suggested ! My best buddy and his wife were killed on his bike with a bald front tire , no other vehicle involved , wish I had cut it !!!

 

Have a kid at our church, just getting his license. No MSF course, knows everything, got himself a crotch rocket. Scoffs at the mention of the MSF class. He's got a cute wife and two beautiful kids. I'll keep ya posted when she becomes a widow.....he's invincible, tougher than anyone and dumber than a rock.
Stick a knife in his tire.

 

Totally agree......knife it in the sidewall! I remember once when I was invincible!

 

Tell him not to worry...when Obama is elected he will take from those us us with good tires and give him a new one.
