is it safe to drive with this?
As I was driving I thought I ran over a nail because I heard that distinct tapping. Once I parked JM and I found this...

lol .. just pull it out, since it looks like its just in the tread. If it hisses, then you shouldn't have listened to me ..
Best I pulled out of a tire once was half of a set long needle nose pliers. It was amazing to see.

Yea, I def. got lucky, I figured I'd wait till the morning before work to pull it out when I can see what I'm doing. I wiggled it around and I didn't hear any air leaking.

as long as the inner liner of the tire isnt punctured your solid
doesnt look bad at all. throw some soapy water on it just in case
watch for bubbles. im 100 percent solid that it wont leak though
edit: btw those gy integritys are awesome tires. compare the tread
to that of the gy assurance comfort tread. identical for 50 less.

what about the internal construction of the tire? i don't know but i'm just asking. tread isn't the only thing that gives you a "comfy" ride

UH...FAIL
The integrety is a BIG POS tire...sorry. Its only good thing is low rolling resistance, hence why Prius uses it.
Integrety and Assurance Comfort Tread are totaly different. How about the additional rubber cap that silents ride up to 20% then other leading tires?
The tread blocks, the tread design, everything is different. Mind as well be comparing it to the Tripple tread.
Ted, you should play some numbers or go to AC with that kinda luck.

These tires are POS', if it's wet out I can't get traction for **** merging on the highway or even just accelerating up an incline. On the cruise I almost broke even in the casino but didn't win anything big. I'm also still waiting to hear about a job I interviewed at 3 times already since the end of May, so I dunno about my luck, things that are really important don't happen for me

Alright well, could be worse.
And yes, unless someone just must have the Integrty's, I will move them to something else.
Biggest complaints is
#1- Rain traction or lack there of
#2- tire life
#3- handle like marshmellows.
For "$50" bucks more, the Comfort Tread gets you
2x the life (40k mile vs 80k mile)
10x the ride comfort
Not saying that the Comfort tread is the mostest awsomest tire...but Integs suck it hard.

Maybe he is talking about just the regular "assurance" but, in fact is still a different tread design and has a 65k milage warrenty.
as soon as I saw "comfort tread" was like... wtf?

actually im pretty much a tire specialist. i know a lot about tires.
comfort tread < triple tread
there are two tires in the assurance passenger car line. the only thing different about the comfort tread and the integrity is that the comfort treads are a tad more quieter than the integrity.

but for almost 50 bucks less theyre a deal. ive worked all over and never heard of anyone with a PASSENGER car complain about the integrity. of course they shouldnt be on a fbody but on a prius you wont notice the difference between a comfort tread and integrity.
hahah camville your right, my tires are toast. also the reason i have a little red REJECTED sticker on my windshield. but they were bfg g-force's before they were toast. next tires for me are the sumitomo htrzIII
