What to do if there is a cut on the side of the tire?
1 Answers
The solutions for a cut on the side of the tire are as follows: 1. If the sidewall of the tire is scratched, the tire must be replaced as soon as possible to avoid the risk of a high-speed blowout. 2. If the damage to the contact surface exceeds 4mm, the tire must also be replaced promptly, as both internal and external repairs pose potential dangers. 3. It is not recommended to use the vehicle before inspecting and repairing the tire (especially if the front tire is damaged). It is advisable to remove the tire to check for internal punctures. For safety reasons, if the puncture is in this location, it is not recommended to repair it, and the tire should be replaced. 4. If there is a small cut on the side of the tire that damages the cord fabric, the tire should be replaced immediately.
