Can a Repaired Car Tire Be Used on the Highway?
1 Answers
Whether a repaired tire can be used on the highway mainly depends on the following situations: 1. Depth of the damage: If the tire's damage does not exceed 6mm, it can be used on the highway. If it exceeds 6mm, it should not be used on the highway. Additionally, adjustments should be made based on the tire drive type of each vehicle. 2. Location of the repair: If the tire repair is not on the tread but on the sidewall, it should not be used on the highway. The sidewall of the tire is very thin, and generally, damage in this area cannot be repaired. 3. Number of repairs: If the tire has been repaired more than twice, it should not be used on the highway to prevent a blowout while driving. A repaired tire can be used as a spare tire.
