My GF is never driving my car again. (pic)
She some how damaged 3 tires this past weekend. She's gonna pay for it and I wonder should I break up with her because she sure as hell can't drive. I can't even imagine how she even did it. Anyone wanna trade GFs. So pissed. Had to vent.

the first 2 are sidewall bulges, which are normal if small, and manufactuer defects if they enlarge.

the last is an object that hit the tire, which may POSSIBLY be caused by her hitting something or more likely, a nail or piece of shrapnel on the roads.
dont think you could blame her for this situation.

should the tire shop be responsible for replacing the two bulges? the last also has curb rash from a u-turn median and she told me about that one. I'm gonna pay for it; she just gonna get less for Christmas.

Be thankful you weren't rolling 22's with low profile tires. That would be a much more costly fix. Change out the tires, kiss the girlfriend, it's Christmas man.
Believe me I'm married and have had this same dreaded senerio happen a couple of times. Not much you can do, just roll with it-

Sucks man... I could understand if the girl was driving in ice or snow, but well... you're in Lousiana so I doubt that applies to you.
Good thing my lady friend rolls an Infiniti QX on chrome 20's, so she never needs to drive the LS.

Sheep happens, she's alive, car is ok except for the tires...easy fix.
If something like this peeves ya and granted, nobody wants this...there is a whole world of stuff far more serious to get really mad at. Going ballistic on her will signal to her where your values are. I'll leave it at that.
im not gunna start on this crap....
