I feel your pain.

Bad alignment chewed to the metal belts on both front tires of wife's X so I swapped rear to front and since we both have the same car I took both our spares and put on her rears.

Bad move: dry rot on old spares completely self destructed within the first 100 miles.



This was a the inside of her tire after it blew out on the tollway on the way to O'Hare.
