I fixed a tire at the repair shop I used to work at that had a muffler clamp stuck in it. Customer didn"t want to buy a new tire.

Wow! I have been torn up by tire cords before, but never anything protruding from the tire. That had to be a surprise. BTW, where did your taillight go?

aaron, tail lamps are taken out, we are repairing both bedsides, had a camper top on it, it blew apart on impact, also knocked the rear slider window to bits, dented the roof good, also rt door and cab corner., that 7.3 turbo is one heavy motor!!! add the 4wd with the transfer case, holy cow. weird thing is the rear differential is a 3:55 gear, front diff is a 3:54 gear. done that way due to the diesel motor weight on the front tires. who"d a thunk!!!

I was following behind a "Lawn Service" guy one time. I saw something small fall off his trailer and swerved, but couldn't miss it. It turned out to be one of thes small rakes that people use in their flower beds. All tree fingers were BURIED in my front tire. The guy saw me in his mirror and actually stopped. He helped me put the spare on and followed me to the store to get a new tire.

A freind of mine had a flat once, got it fixed, guy said he found what made the hole - a pair of needle nose pliers, went all the way inside the tire.

Back In the 50"s My Dad Worked On the Railroad & There Was A Gas Station Near Where Parked His Car for the Day, So He Had Them Put 2 New Tires On His Car, These Tires Were Sitting Inside Near Where The Candy, Pop Cigeretts And Razor Blades
Were Kept. On His Way home He Had a Flat And Took Tire Back Next Day & A Package Of Razor Blades Were In Tire Between Tire & Tube, They Were On a Display Above The Tires In The Station. Don"t Know Why They Missed Them?

It can happen. Once picked up a utility knife blade in Dad's pickup off a city street.

There is a far greater likelihood of a razor blade in the tire than finding value in your comment. JimN

heck, ya don"t need to change the tire. just rotate it to the side that is not flat. at least that what some folks believe. razor cut hurt like heck. get some aloe vera and squeeze the juice on it. it will heal faster and with much less pain and swelling.

I smashing my finger once when loading the wood stove --- I soaked it in Vinegar for an hour --- it never got infected -- and healed right up --- that information comes from the Doctors back in the Old ages ... take that advise and use it ....
