    I've never seen a complete, unbroken donut of tread and sidewall separate from a wheel.

    Run-flat that was run flat too long too fast?


    …been run in a straight line, deflated, at speed for a considerable distance.

    “ Capital One Reports Fourth Quarter 2021 Net Income of $2.4 billion”

    Yep still seems massive.

    Don’t know any appliance dealer making 2.4 billion in one quarter. Also don’t know any appliance dealers that took a 3.5 billion dollar bail out either but capital one did.

    I'd be surprised if RFTs were on a vehicle with those rims given the extra cost and limited availability.

    I'm not sure if you know how to read financial statements and what ratios mean so it appears we are speaking different languages, and thus put this to bed now.

    I have no need to read their financial statements

    Try to have a civil conversation but that just seems impossible with you. Hopefully someday you realize you are not as smart as you think you are and it dosnt make you better than everyone.

    It's a legitimate question (not an insult) - a ratio and an absolute number are two different things like two languages so there'll always be a gap in what we're referring to if we're comparing small and large businesses. Have a good night.
