Tire Plugs - safe or not? Posted by Bill Homer [Email] (#3427) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Bill Homer) on Tue, 4 Dec 2007 09:00:28 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I just had a flat tire repair: a nail through one of the "troughs" on the tread of the tire. I could have pulled out the nail and inserted a plug if I thought that it was a safe thing to do - and avoided the cost of the repair and the tire shop chipping the paint around the rim of my 9000 Aero rim (Grrrr.......).
What are people's takes on the pros and cons of repairing with a plug vs. removing the tire from the rim and applying a patch inside?
