It was close but I think we can get this one plugged
...Whatever happened to the patch it from the inside method ???...
Holly's Tires?
I never thought much about doing it, but these days I have heavier and faster cars so it may be more critical. Would have hated to have a tire issue when I took the old M3 up to 170 one night lolThat was not legal to plug or patch. If the tire blows out, it's all on you if it's investigated.
I'd never try to repair a Z rated tire.
Baller with a Screw in his tire is how I see itBaller with nail in tire is how I see it...
Nice ride by the way....
...Pretty sure that one doubler can be saved...While on my walk to Lowe's this afternoon I saw these and picked them up. I recently found these nails while on another walk and picked them up also. This is a common occurrence while out on my regular heart healthy walks. I usually just toss the stuff in the trash but since it's been a topic here lately I thought it was worth a couple pics. Good Karma, for starters I'm just trying to keep my wife and daughter from running them over, they seem to have a radar for them while driving around...

Exactly I do this all the time if I'm walking through a parking lot or even on family walks, wife use to thinks it was wierd but understands. I catch my kids doing it sometimes too.While on my walk to Lowe's this afternoon I saw these and picked them up. I recently found these nails while on another walk and picked them up also.

You are probably correct. I didn't even feel it. Worst part was, the lot I pulled into was about was about two hundred yards past a Discount Tire on the freeway feeder road. I could see the building, but I couldn't even limp the truck back to it. Had to take that big ass wheel off myself (I am definitely getting to old for that shit!!!!) and get it over to the tire place. Business had a Gator, was nice enough to take the tire and me over to DT. Of course, they didn't have a tire. So, we take it back and I put the spare on. Fun times...Almost an amazing feat to have that occur, I bet you could run over that bolt 1,000 times in various directions and never intentionally get it to even penetrate, let alone duplicate.
