If your tyre becomes damaged, it may be repaired if:
• The tyre has not been driven on when flat
• The damage is only on the tread section of your tyre (sidewall damage ruins a tyre immediately)
• The puncture is no greater than 6mm
How is a tyre properly repaired?
• The tyre is demounted and inspected internally as well as externally. It is then patched from the inside and the puncture hole is filled.
• Do not have your tyre plugged. A plug is simply inserted into the punctured area, making it unreliable.
Tyres should be repaired by a tyre professional.
