    My, how you've grown !

    Picked up a screw + nail + sharp metal piece + staple all in one rear tire on my other P-car... (aka contractor's special)
    Had to yank it out and take the wheel in for a replacement... It hit me then how big those modern wheels are compared to the oldies - and that's the entry level 19" in 285 !!! (they go bigger)

    Funny pic, is all...
