Trying to sell me road hazard insurance. I said, No. He said,"REALLY ! It's only 10 dollars a tire". I said OK, Put me down for one tire.

Road hazard can come in handy - especially if you have low profile tires.

I had road hazard insurance on my Acura RDX. Never collected a penny. It's probably worth it for one time insurance when you purchase a tire. It's not worth it when it's in a lease. I only did it to protect the rims for trade-in. I should have put the money aside to pay for the over-mileage on my lease. I'm a Michelin and BFGoodrich guy.

Yeah - that's different - tire road hazard won't do squat for your rims
And right choice Pepi + what did he say about just road hazard for one tire??

Fucking low profile tires suck. I went through 5, during one winter, about three years ago. The cold created thousands of pot holes and the tire dealers made a fortune.

So which tire did you choose? Front right is my choice.

Just remember which one - so you can move the bad tire over there when you need to use the warranty!
