Default Aaaargh

So I got my new set of 2CT's put on last friday after getting a screw in my front tire. Today I picked up a Mercedes key.... yes a Mercedes key... in my new rear tire with all of 75 miles of usage. I give up. >

I wonder if you find the MB that the key belongs to if you get a 2CTs for life.

Seriously though, sorry to hear 'bout the hitchhiker in the tire.

Was it the tire that caused the highside? [cheeky]
