WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 As a rule of thumb, if the nail is in the tread area, it can be repaired. If it is in the sidewall area, repair is difficult to impossible. This is because the sidewall flexes so much all the time when in motion.

carbonedge+ Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 yes, that should be repairable...Not sure if you have any near you, but the Kaufman Tire stores around here fix those for free...or at least they used to...

akirby Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 I think they also do free flat repair. Just make sure they take the tire off the wheel and don't just use a plug from the outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
