Potheader Clutched October 9, 2004 Share October 9, 2004 if your tyres are old and going to be worn out, why not get new ones? pumping your tyres with nitrogen helps too.. (less N2 will leak when tyre puncture, then can drive to workshop for repair) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like to know if there are any recommended place for repair of tyres in the north? I'm staying in woodlands area. regards. ======================= You can try Creative Trading at 38 Woodlands Indl Pk E1. # 02-06. Tel: 67601591/2 Speak to Jimmy. The best way to repair is to remove the tyre from the rim & patch from inside. If tyre is worn, change a new tyre will be better. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icedbs Turbocharged January 2, 2013 Share January 2, 2013 guys...wanna ask something. For those shop that does plugging of the tyre from outside, do they normally remove the tyre from the car, or do they do the plugging with the tyre still on the car? Just worried if they do the plugging with the tyre still on the car, all the bull strength required to plug the tyre may stress the brake, axel, etc...

Xefera 6th Gear January 2, 2013 Share January 2, 2013 all that stress will not amount to anything close to > 1,000kg of car weight stressing those joints. Most workshops can complete the job in 5-10mins without removing the tyre. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
