Why not just... get the tire patched? No need to change the whole wheel just because you drove over a nail. Shouldn't cost more than $15 anyway.

You can’t patch all damage. Presumably if they’re broke they already explored the largely free option.

And you don't have to use always use the most expensive option. Presumably, the rich friend didn't think of the cheaper options.

After all, the post only explores the friends pov (or the OOPs opinion of that friends pov), and not the OOPs.

i drove with a rope patch for about a year before i replaced all the tires due to age. it's not fun. it always leaks air but how much depends on the weather, humidity, pressure, how long you drove last time... it's basically a gamble whether you get where you're going.
