    That is a bummer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is fixable though. Yup, I had one set of GSCs....GARBAGE! ...expensive GARBAGE! I hope all works out, and your car is fixed.

            Bummer...

            Another reason why I chose to outfit my ride with Dunlop SP Sport 9000's. Rated one of the best wet tires in the Ultra Performance tire category...an unbelievable improvement over the aforementioned GSC's.
