A new set of wheels
Or more accurately, I got a new set of tyres after failing my STA inspection. The front left wheel had became bald and was not acceptable. The interesting thing was that the rest of the wheels were still acceptable.
My wife was quick to theorize that it has something to do with my beer bellow. It must be because I am getting fatter, weigh more and occupies the front passenger seat more often while she did most of the driving. It kinda of make sense though I did not exactly like the idea that I am putting on that much weight!
Thankfully, I got the real reason after a visit to the car workshop. The mechanic had a look and asked me if I park my car in a multi-level car park. It turns out that the winding nature of such car parks result in the front left tire being worn out much faster compared to the rest.
Now that definitely makes more sense than blaming it on my beer belly!
