[QUOTE="Bugnatr, post: 1439392, member: 1339"] First off, have the tire removed and patched by a tire shop, if they can. Problem solved. I had a tire on my awd Highlander that had a staple in the shoulder and couldn't be repaired but the tires were a bit less than half worn. I talked to a local mechanic (you know the one who rides a S10) and he said it's okay to replace just one tire but not two, I believe I read the same thing on the net. He felt the differential will compensate for the difference in the tire wear. Think about all the folks who don't rotate their tires and yet the vehicles keep going. Her tires may be well past half way then I probably replace all four instead of just one tire. I had a customer who put the wrong size tires on their Chrysler and it ruined the trans or transfer case (I forget which). Just my .02 and I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn last night. YRMV [/QUOTE]
