You might be able to last if you stay off the freeway as much as you can. But it also depends on where it is worn out on.

Chris has been driving around in his protege5 with steel belts showing on one tire for a good 2-3 months now. Not safe, i know but still should give you some comfort. Just dont worry about it. out of sight, out of mind. :thumb:

id go buy a cheap, used tire if i were you, until you can afford a new one. tires arent something you should skimp out on, its the only thing connecting you with the road.
