When a tyre punctured with a 3 cm hole, the mechanic patched it with a round patch on the inside tyre wall. How long can this type of patching last?

QUOTE(epjx31 @ Jul 10 2022, 10:08 PM) What do you mean by "tyre wall"? You mean sidewall? --> patching sidewall is super no no as stresses is the highest on the sidewall. Chances of failure is relatively high. Thank you for your reply.If its on the tread & done properly & properly inflated , tire should be able to withstand till its end of life. Not the side wall. Wall behind the thread. Will the glue get dried up and leaks again? |
