so on way to a wedding.. hit a chunk of a road (in construction area) ripped up my rear tire.

kudos to acura roadside assistance had someone out in 30 min change to spare. however i have a light on my dash though on the right side yellow looks like an upside down horse shape.

anyone know what it is and how to get rid of it?

Also i realized that i have bridgestone tires up front and michellen in the rear and according to tirerack those are the two oem tires, is that a stock setup?

 

Not to sound like an ass but why wouldn't a car that was brand new at a time not get matching tires all around? The previous own of your car probably didn't care about matching the tires and just got whatever.

 

A picture would help. I dont remember any sort of horse shaped icons on our dash.

 

this? http://www.aa1car.com/library/tpms_icon.jpg

tire pressure monitoring system, light is on cause your spare is not reporting the tire pressure.

 

glad everything turned out okay OP...lol

 

No the mismatching tires are not stock.

 

when the previous owner got two tires changed he must've just got whatever was told to him to be stock

 

Did your car have the jack and tire iron and everything in it from the previous owner? It's not that hard to change a tire.

 

^ He was on his way to a wedding, so I'm thinking he didnt want to get all dirty, I would of done the same thing

 

that horse shoe could be your TPMS telling you something? is it with an exclamation mark like this ---> (!). check the tire pressure maybe your rim is bent or something and you're slowly leaking air out.

also when you said chunch i thought u meant church. haha

 

i was dressed in suit and it was 93 degrees outside.. felt like 193 w/ humidity.

the tires that are on there are very high end the michellin tire is 260 on tirerack local shopped wanted 300.

anyways got a pair of eagle gt. icon is gone they reset the tirepressure system so all is well now just sucks that 370 bucks could've gone for something more fun like tints or jpipe.

 

Glad you got everything squared away OP I thought it said you ran into a church, at first as well lol

 

lol.... ya that would not only mess up car but piss off the man upstairs.

 

^

 

really... 193... really.........really, wow, if you say the word "really" long enough, it's starts to sound weird, like it's not a real word or something. Anyways, so theres a horse on ur dash? you should probably do something about that

 

 

lol
