When I first saw the subject line I thought you'd *blown* a tire at 90 mph. Which would be immeasurably worse.

Randy,

This may be a little too late but, Did you know that any debris that damages your car on the freeway is covered by CAL TRANS? I had a tired damage my car in a simular situation. All I did was get a police report from the CHP. The officer saw the tired and took it off the road. I took the tired , called CAL TRANS and they sent someone out the look at my car. They cut me a check in 2 weeks. You should still look into it. You might be able to get compensation for your pain.

Same thing happened to me last week, the tire cracked my oil pan, crushed the cat coverter, and ____ed the three pieces of the ground effects. The parts are all on back order so I will be with out my ride 4 weeks or so.
