    I saw a flatbed drive from the beginning of population zone to the end of the next county before I got off the freeway. He just kept on rolling. With no outside tire on the right rear trailer. Rim was just spinning round and round.

    He passed up 2 Loves, 3 tire shops that I know of. And countless Les Schwab's. In that 55 mile stretch that I followed him. And as a bonus. 6 highway patrol's.

    He was empty though so I guess he's not in dire need of an extra tire.

    On another note. I also saw a bobtail leaving Nestle. 8 bald cords on the drives.

    Good thing you went out of your way to photograph it and couldn’t wait to put it on ttr.

    It’s an outside dual, calm down mr law and order.

    By the looks of the inside tire, they put a newer tire with more tread depth inside and it ate the outside tire up.
