I decided to get a new set of tires even though my tires had a few thousand 
miles left.  The stock Ecopia is still the best choice. Costco has them for 
under 600 dollars.  Wheelworks was a little more but I decided to get a 
alignment too and Costco doesn't do alignments.   I found a broken off Phillips 
head screw gun bit in the tire about 2 and a half inches long.  A hole was 
through the tread.  It lost pressure quickly and I ruined the tire driving off 
the Bay Bridge in San Francisco.  No safe place to stop.  Turns out a Sentra 
doughnut will work on the Leaf.  Lawrence Rhodes

Bizarre. I've never blown a tire in 40 some years. And I've driven on a 
lot of potholed roads. Are you sure you didn't hit something? Or, do you 
wear your sidewalls thin by, say, rubbing up against the curb while 
parking?
