My fun weekend

So this weekend I'm visiting a friend down in Red Wing, we went down to dig him a water feature in his backyard. On the way back I started hearing a click click click coming from my right-front tire but didn't think much of it since it was still full of air and we had gone behind Menard's to pick up some rock for the pond. Then on MN 50 between New Trier and Miesville my front end gets really shaky. I know I'm flat but the shoulder is 6 inches and it's a hilly road; good chance I'd get hit if I stopped. So I limp the car to New Trier, thankfully only about a mile, and get out to look and the tire is toast. Also, my spare tire was punctured recently so it's unusable.
Jump forward, car's safe and parked at a bar, my friend drives me and my wheel up to the cities. Calling everywhere on a Sunday trying to find a place that has my tire size and only find one place. They only have something rated H (no way) and a set of RE960AS.
Now I'm stuck in the dilemma of what to do. I've got a new tire on the front left, three 15000 mile OEM tires everywhere else. Pissed that tires my size aren't common enough to find easily. So I've come up with a list on action courses and need advice/opinions.

 

do you want to just buy another re92?
if so, look around locally and keep other tire as a spare

 

Oh yeah, that's obviously another option - it didn't make it on the poll though. However those things are expensive everywhere I've found them.

 

I got your messages yesterday, glad you found a tire.

 

thanks man, any opinion on moving forward? Also please post your recommendation if you choose the something else category

 

see if anyone's getting rid of some tires man, post on the members for sale forum, some might have a few for sale.

 

What tyre size are you running ?

 

standard - 215/45R17

 

wow guys 82 views and 4 voters - nice

 

I say buy three more RE960AS's, from what I've heard they are worth the money you spend on them.

Otherwise- new wheels are always fun.

 

Hey, I've got 4 tires for sale in exactly your size!

Do it!

 

One - your thread reflects a sale on those, guess not though
Two - those are summer tires and I have no garage to store them and no want to buy new rims or mount them every other season
