How Many Tires Do You Own?

Unread post by Kurt »

Here's a fun little exercise :)
I think you'll be surprised once you tally up your answer. :-o
Simply how many tires do you own?
Count up the ones on your cars, trucks, Jeeps, trailers, lawn movers, wheel barrels, pressure washer, bicycles, spares, etc that you own.

Post up your tallys :)

I think 66? I'm probably missing some somewhere...

Do you know who the largest manufacturer of rubber tires is in the world? :)

Either Goodyear or Bridgestone are my 2 guesses.

Which is funny... I don't have those brand tires at my house.

It is, he's right! :)

I guess I'm the lowest so far. 15 across three vehicles, 4 on tractor, 2 on snow blower, 4 on two bikes. 25 total. Wheel barrow and power washer have non pneumatic tires.
Speed costs money, how slow do you want to go?

Pneumatic only... I think I'm at 57. And that's after selling the 4 old Rubi tires on Craigslist last week... and my two wheelbarrows each have non-pneumatic tires! (J's Jeep has 10 tires and my truck has 9 - that helps a lot!) Interesting factoid, J's Cadillac doesn't have a spare. They give you a can of fix-a-flat and tell you to call roadside assistance. Cheapskates!
