I had a Nitto plug/patch repair and have to say it held up for the life of the tire....about 9 burnouts and cords were showing, but it held air..LOL

Well you gotta get your money’s worth. These have only seen 2 burnouts in 500 miles. They have a warranty tho 😂

 

[vortecd]

Sure do. Well I’m still rocking the factory driveshaft you’d think I’d me more worried about that 😂

That will only be an issue at the track

Sometimes there's a glitch and it posts all the emojis after you click one of them....but it does seem to happen to @ChargerChallenger a lot on his end

I think she’s too young to have that kind of polio vax scar. That was our generation’s mark of excellence.

There's another shot that gives a scar like that too.....I think it's Smallpox....but I'd have to look that up. After you get the shot they tell you not to pick the scab and make it scar worse.

There's my science contribution for the day. And if any of you disagree with that....well you know what that means

And here...to make up for the blemished beauty I posted.....how about this one????

I looked REALLY carefully. She passes.

 

[Matt someone with an SRT]

Well. I went for a 3 mile drive and was the lucky finder of crap in the road. I almost just went and bought two new rears but decided to have the tire shop patch it for now. I’m going to imagine the patch will hold. This wasn’t a plug. They took the tire off to do it the right way at least.

This recently happened to me. Only had about 4000 miles on the ps4s I trashed the one tire and kept the other and put in my storage garage. Put on 2 brand new rears.. I’m not driving and hitting triple digit speeds with a plug in my tire. Peace of mind is worth the $$$$.. the speed rating is compromised when you have a plug in your tire.

Agree, peace of mind is worth alot. I tend to ponder when i last checked my lug nuts when the speedo climbs. I think I'd be shopping tires...

I just checked my front wheel torque last night because I knew it has been a few months

I check mine when they start clicking…

Uhh, clicking? Does clicking preceed wobbling?

 

[JRabq]

Oops precede

 

[Old Mopar Guy]

Yes. Almost always.😳. Then departure from the vehicle.

Not if you have fender skirts.

I can overlook ANY scar on her.

It's all in the "science"

That's right, follow the science, believe what you here

All I know is that I've had plenty of patched and/or plugged tires in my day and never once did that stop me from doing burnouts or trying to shove the gas pedal through the firewall

I agree, you have to test it. I would patch a tire with plenty of thread left, I have a patch on one of my DR's that I race on, no issue. I would not patch a motorcycle tire.

 

[Demonic Cat]

That patch should last until you wear out the tire.
Just to make sure, whenever I get a tire patched.....I do a nice burnout to help vulcanize the patch to the tire

Seems to work pretty well.

Hooooly Shit Troop I ain’t never seen the panel light up that good, talk about pushing buttons & it looks like every one else pushed the game show slap button LOL
