If you're catching nails on the reg then no tire brand is going to fix that. Just buy from a shop that has a good warranty and flat repair policy.

79 cutty Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 If it really is just a nail or something piercing your tire just pick up a "fix-a-flat" kit from your local parts store. They are less than $10 and work great. Just make sure the rubber cement isn't too viscous or solidified. I have used it several times on the rubber on my old hopper, and on some larger rims without an issue. Firm believer in letting my cars do my talking! You can't rush quality, it doesn't happen overnight. Quality takes time and dedication, but the end results more than pay for it.

ShadeTreeMechanic Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 Do not use fix a flat. Take it to a tire shop that can do a vulcanized patch. Should be only about $10 if you take the rim to them. If you can do it yourself, a plug patch from inside the tire will work well too. 91 C350 Centurion conversion ( Four Door One Ton Bronco) 250A Alternator (Second Alternator Coming Soon) G65 AGM Up Front / Two G31 AGM in Back Pioneer 80PRS CT Sounds AT125.2 / CT Sounds 6.5 Strato Pro component Front Stage CT Sounds AT125.2 / Lanzar Pro 8" coax w/compression horn tweeter Rear Fill FSD 5000D 1/2 ohm (SoundQubed 7k Coming Soon) Two HDS315 Four Qubes Each 34hz (Two HDC3.118 and New Box Coming Soon) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
