    I used to condone this, but people are stupid and can drive on the flat tire until it explodes, potentially putting other peoples lives at risk.

    Not worth it for some petty revenge.

          If you have comprehensive coverage, this will be covered. If the damage is of less value than your deductible, you won’t receive any money.

        Can take hours to fully deflate, they could be on the Highway home by the time they go flat enough to be noticeable.

          I guess you could leave a sticky note on driver’s window that says something like “oopsie woopsie I noticed your tires are deflated, this car is unsafe to drive :(”. Also you could just unscrew the valve core to make sure tires deflate quickly.

            Maybe I’ve had someone have this happen to them and the tire exploded and hurt an innocent bystander. It’s a large world.

            The possibility is there if you think for more than a few seconds on the possible consequences of something.

        I’ve been told if you do all four insurance might be more apt to cover it, best to do one to three of them that way it might not be covered
