While my wife and I were at work today, our house was broken into. The usual stuff got stolen, TV, Xbox, laptop, meds, jewelry. It's all just stuff though. Nothing that can't be replaced, and nobody was home so we're all fine and dandy. What I could use yall's help with is internet super sleuthing. My neighbor dyes his lawn, lol. He owns a landscaping business so it looks amazing. But the thieves drove over the dye and left a perfect tire impression. I asked on of the officers if finding out what tire it is would help. He said it actually might, since a lot of the time they use cars that are stolen. So knowing which stolen car was used is worth knowing. Anybody know what tire this is?

This is quite possibly the best bit of internet sleuthing I've ever seen, lol. Thanks so much Skydogs. I'm calling the investigator in the morning, and I will let him know. You sir, are the man.
So glad I could help!! Best of luck to you and catching there ass!! I hope you and family are recovering quick from this.
So welcome Skydog
Och, so sorry to hear, ALW, glad you got some handy help already from Skydogs :thumb:
Appreciate the kind words yall. Luckily we weren't home so the worst I have to deal with is cleaning up a bit of broken glass and a stressed out wife. We have homeowner's insurance so we'll be able to replace all our stuff. It's a frustrating pain, but nothing they snatched was irreplaceable. Hopefully talking to the insurance company means I can look at new TVs, lol.
Weather you can understand it doing what it does, you went thru this already. But when humans get involved, it REALLY sucks.
Yeah skydogs get some!...and sorry that happened agent...I hope you enjoy some new stuff from it
I hope the OCC is still there! :D
Serious note glad no one was hurt during the incident while material products can always and easily be replaced. Z

Yes amen try to enjoy the new stuff!! I have been robbed a few times not a good feeling some scum bags running around in your dwelling!!! Stay strong!!!!
The OCC is nice and safe, lol. I still need to make a post about that. I actually cut a nice hunk into my finger installing it. Skydogs, do you know if that tire is original equipment on any cars?
No it is Not and they are not seen very much at all anymore. 4-5 years out Plus the side wall is very distinctive easy to spot. Good luck buddy!!!!

Nailed it! I just read this post and was like "I know it! I know it!" Yes that would be the triple tread from good year. Unfortunately its a fairly popular tire.. BUT most people run them on SUV's.. I did on my tahoe...
Good luck! Glad everyone is safe and sound.
Popular in NoVA only because people around here have too much money.. those are NOT cheap tires for an all season.
