Can Car Tires Be Repaired?
1 Answers
As long as the tire damage is not severe, it can be repaired through patching. However, if the tire has been patched too many times or the damage is serious, it is recommended to replace it with a new tire. Here are situations where tire replacement is not necessary: 1. Tread damage diameter less than 6mm: In daily use, it is most common for vehicles to be punctured by nails, and often this goes unnoticed at the time. Nails inserted into the tire do not significantly damage the tire's structure; the steel wires, fabric layers, and polyester layers are merely pierced, and a simple repair will suffice. 2. Excessive tread damage: If the tread comes into contact with sharp objects, causing severe tread pattern loss or the tire body to be cut, and the puncture hole exceeds 6mm in diameter, the tire can no longer be repaired. The punctured tire must be replaced to ensure driving safety. 3. Bulging: Bulging is caused by broken cords in the fabric layers. In such cases, the tire must be replaced immediately, as delayed replacement could lead to the danger of a blowout.
