Bingo. I only buy insurance if I feel I can't afford the potential loss (variance is high) - eg house or car liability OR if for some reason I feel that my expected value is greater than the cost - eg I lived in an area with lots of construction and thus am more prone to nail puncture and should insure my tires.

I have never blown a tire and don't buy tire/wheel insurance.

Dealer quoted me $995 for this insurance. Sounds a little higher than what others have payed. I've had 1 puncture in the last 10 years, so maybe I'll pass.
