When And How To Get Tires Repaired
http://images.thecarconnection.com/t...00233859_t.gif Don't despair: when you're faced with a flat tire, you should assume that it can be repaired. Many times people will request that a tire be replaced even before it has been inspected. If a punctured tire is properly evaluated and repaired according to a few minimum standards, there is no reason that it can't provide you with months, if not years...

Not sure if i can ask a question here, but..
Just got a flat tire on my car Sunday when going down to watch the game. Missed the first half. :bat::bat: Anyway, there was no puncture, it was a problem with the bead. I don't know what exactly that means, and since the tires are less than a year old, assuming it was repaired well, will it wear and be as reliable as the rest of them?? |
The bead is where the tire seals to the rim. Sometimes hitting a curb or something can cause the seal to break. As long as the rim isn't damaged it should be alright.

Thanks Jazz. That's good to know.
..and, it was a big snow chunk at the end of my sister's driveway, but curb is close. :tu: |
