Can the damage on the tire edge be repaired?
1 Answers
Damage to the tire edge cannot be repaired. Here are the reasons why tire edge damage cannot be repaired: 1. Since the tire edge undergoes fatigue load during operation and is in a constant state of deformation and recovery, even if repaired, it will eventually fall off after prolonged use. 2. If the tire edge is severely damaged and the tire pressure is abnormal, high tire pressure can expand the wound, while low tire pressure can affect tire bending and fatigue, leading to a potential blowout. 3. To determine if the tire edge damage has affected the cord layer, visually inspect the damaged area for exposed white cords. Additionally, you can check by increasing the tire pressure by 1-2 kg above the standard pressure, driving to raise the tire temperature, and observing if there are any changes or bulges at the damaged area. If there are none, adjust the tire pressure back to the standard value, and the tire can be used normally for short trips in the city.
