One of my tyre sidewall got puncture, it's been patched before, but now it starts leaking again like daily down with 0.05 psi, so meaning I have to go pump the air every one or two weeks.
I have asked one of the shop and they said if patch again will probably cause more harm due to the hole might gets bigger.
So just trying to see if there's alternative way to repair or would it be safe to drive if continue with this. My tyre still kinda new and also quite costly to replace it (mi ps4)..
I seen glue that can hold slit tire in Shopee before and wonder how glue technology will work. Google to find ant test on it and found this video which makes the glue tech convincing
Anyway, I'd say if you just drive around in town at busy town or relatively low speed then it is worth a try but if you talk about highway, I would recommend you change tire. Life is priceless.
But looking at the damage at the side wall, not recommended.
The sidewalls will flex during driving, higher chance of blow out.
Since the last patched I think it was like almost a year already, so far normal drive looks fine until recently the air leaking.. if really no choice then will have to change then. Adui
Yea true, but my car is awd, so basically I have to at least change two tyres, pocket got hole lol
AWD you need change all 4 not 2 (Read your user manual book on tire replacement!). The most you can only do internal patch with add on rubber adhesive. If you buy 2 only, you will only accelerate the wear on differential gearing which may create some sound pitch or whirring sound when the gear worn down fast.
Another option buy 1pcs, find tire shop which can do treads shavings which reduce the treads thickness to match others. This really need to ask those who do lorries retreads tyre or performance shop as some sport tires they will do this before competition.
