Can a small nail puncture on the tire sidewall be repaired?
1 Answers
Whether a small nail puncture on the tire sidewall can be directly repaired depends on whether the damaged area exceeds 6 centimeters. If it does not exceed, it can be repaired; if it exceeds, the tire needs to be replaced. The following is relevant information about car tires: 1. Importance of tires: Well-maintained vehicle tires can ensure good ride comfort and smooth driving, guarantee excellent adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, and improve the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capability. 2. Hazards of underinflated tires: Low tire pressure can increase tire body deformation, easily causing cracks on the sidewalls and generating flexing movements, leading to excessive heat, accelerating rubber aging, fatigue of the cord layer, and breaking of the cords. It also increases the tire's contact area with the ground, accelerating wear on the tire shoulders.
