You prolly ran it over it punchered the rim/tire and as the air leaked out the tire flattened out shearing the nail out the inside of your tire and leaving a gaping wound! O_O still sounds like a freak incident! | ||

That's what I meant. But the flakes pointing towards the inside are like perpendicular to the rim, so that would mean the shooter was very very low, probably had to lie on the ground, and perfectly in front of the car, or perfectly behind the car, which makes it strange. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + It could be cover-up attempt by assassin to lessen your suspicion on failed murder attempt though. | ||

The mechanic who replaced our tire with the spare one (Not at the dealership) helped us on the side of the road on his way home. So he didn't have time to look inside the tire. I don't think we could have driven over that >_> I guess someone stuck it in our tire at a parking lot <_< | ||

Or just stuck in there? If it's in the tire WOW! | ||
