Today I had the pleasure of a rapid tire deflation on the road. :-( Tried the inflater with goo but no way, still hissing. Called roadside and they got me a loaner wheel fairly quickly. (good experience overall BTW)
However, when we took the wheel off, the wear was unreal (see below)
A few notes:

A few notes:
- Yes, this and the other three tires were at the end of their service life. But the visible parts were all still within tolerance (barely) Frankly, I was already researching what to put on next.
Tips are welcome It uses 245/35 21s I had the ContiSportContact5 with Contisilent. But I wasn't impressed with their lifespan (est 15k miles came newish on used car 15months ago) I was considering the Pilot SuperSports instead as they have a much better rating on TireRack. - All four tires were inspected during SC visit about a month ago. Overall wear was noted but NO specific, or abnormal wear was reported (and I asked)
- It was in the SC to replace the Drive Unit. Hmmmm
