Nothing like a cold, windy, rainy night to have a flat! Check Tire Pressure Light popped on, and low and behold, RR 4PSI! Somehow picked up what looks like a box cutter blade.
To anyone that hasn't had the pleasure of changing a flat on a TB SS, you are in for some BIG FUN!!!
Anyway, got the spare on but I need to reset the tire pressure light and pressure readings when I get the regular tire fixed. Is that something a dealer has to do... ch-ching??:drool

I don't think the tire pressure light needs to be reset, it will go away once it sees the correct pressure of the newly fixed tire.

Changing the tire? It wasn't so hard when I figured out what all the pieces to the jack are. And I had to lie down in really cold water in order to get the jack set under the shock tower. Took awhile how to get the spare out. Must've looked for that hole for 20 minutes where you stick the rod in to wind that thing down ...
Damn. That just dosen't sound right. Okay, it wasn't so bad. Just like a night with the ex.
BUT!!! Said tire can't be fixed. I have a pickle of a decision to make. AWD, matched set? Take 1,2 or 4? $203 apiece retail? Yea, I saw TireRacks price, but balancing, etc. Hell, I just don't know...

Realy? Never had to do this with my 4runner/Acura/ or Armada. How do you do it?
