[Shotimes] flat tire - tire wall damage?

[bjshov8]

I guess it depends on whether you feel lucky or not.  I've bought the
warranty a few times but never used it.  I figure with the number of tires
I've purchased, that I've saved enough by not buying the warranty to have
paid for several sets of tires.

I bought the extended warranty on my 90 SHO, as I recall it was about $1k.
I managed to get a new rack out of it but that was it, so the $1k warranty
paid for my $0.5k rack.  I've re-evaluated and never buy extended warranties
unless it is for something that I'm really suspicious about or that I think
will have a higher than average failure rate.

I have a co-worker who jogs every day, no matter the weather.  He bought a
64k MP3 player several years ago, and bought the extended warranty.  He has
had the player replaced about 3 times for free, and each time he is upgraded
to whatever they are currently selling, so now he has a 1MB MP3 player.

should ALWAYS be included.
