dark_templer_102 Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 I have F1 GSD3s and I think i know why i got a bubble (curbed it...) and a nail in my tire, however i have discount tire's warrenty so a new tire is on the way. I have 5000 miles on the tire and he said something about how each tire is...close to each other or something, thus all i need is one new tire. Also, i'm hearing this slight wining noise, is this caused by my spare tire being on and not a normal tire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark_templer_102 Posted November 9, 2006 Author Share Posted November 9, 2006 It says 50 mph. I sorta went 55 at one point. I didn't really notice the whine till i stopped and had to roll down the windows and turned off my stereo. The stereo isn't on that loud though..

dark_templer_102 Posted November 9, 2006 Author Share Posted November 9, 2006 So is it alright getting a brand new tire with the slightly worn regular ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilh Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 1/4-inch circumference difference is the rule according to Subaru. You can either measure the circumference or look for a tread depth difference under about 1.3 32nds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vimy101 Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 ^ The new tire can also be shaved down to match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
