Subtler, safer, and more damaging to damage the air valve instead.
fallaciousBasisYou don’t know what you’re talking about. The air valve is separate from the tire. It attaches to the rim. There’s no inner tube.
A new tire is 50-200 bucks. 50 probably being a used POS.
That valve? Many tire shops will replace for free, or very cheap (a few dollars max.)
Side wall damage? You’re gonna need a new (or used, not recommended) tire.
Also. Go for a small, sharp smooth blade. There’s a good chance it’ll just slow leak and they’ll make it to McDonald’s or whatever and then run flat. XD
The tires for my minivan run $130 to $220 each. The tires on that truck are not standard and are extra wide. Id bet closer to $300-$400 each.
ByteJunkIt’s not the cost, it’s the inconvenience.
Even if he has a spare tire for that monster, I wanna see him try replacing it, it’ll be hilarious.
Or he’ll have to call a tow and wait for it.
Either way, awesome. Push comes to shove, “your honor, I offer to settle this dispute by paying the cost of the valve I supposedly damaged.”
That’s an interesting perspective.
But usually the spare or donut comes with it’s own rim and valve… So shouldn’t need a tow.
But that’s also why you always slash more than one tire. Nobody is carrying multiple donuts.
A while back there was a local kerfuffle because some vandal was slashing the tires of cars which came to visit a local park at the top of a bluff. The vandal would only slash 3/4 tires and it apparently made getting insurance to cover it hell because insurance would cover 4 damaged tires but not only 3. Also 3 tires is more likely to be less than/about the insurance deductible thereby making it more costly to the owner. So the vandal was really causing maximum possible chaos by slashing only 3 tires
