Do contractors drive run flats?

[ree]

I got a leak in one of my tires after a recent visit to the house I'm building. There were two roofing nails in it. I patched it okay but it makes me wonder if the builders who are at these crap-strewn sites magically avoid getting flats somehow. You would think that if they were getting flats all the time they'd be more careful at their sites.

Any builders care to chime in?

Indeed, a question for the ages. I would also be curious.

X3! Yeah, I'd like to know, too! They drive over all that stuff and nothing happens. Maybe they use that 'Flat in a Bottle" stuff or whatever it's called.

Thick tires prolly. I dunno either.

The real question is:Are they responsible for your flat?

Stock BGF ATs aren't that thin, are they?

I doubt I could prove the nails were from there. So without even considering whether they should be liable, I don't have a case. Besides two plugs and a little bit of my time is way cheaper than what it would take to seek compensation.

I think they put the nails out just for the customers.
