Reparing Leak in Tire Side Wall
Sasquatch Jones wrote:
I have a slow lead in the side wall that came from scraping some kind of sharp object laying by the curb. Looks like a 1/2-inch cut, but jagged. Tire is tubeless radial. Is it possible to patch something like this on the side wall? Patch kits say they are for the tread but don't say specifically not to use them on the side.
2nd thought -- can I put a tube in it? Seems like I remember tire places say tubeless can't be fixed with a tube, but I can't see why not.
Anyway, thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,
Safety #1. right? I'd try to find a similar used tire.
I wouldn't have peace of mind if I have a tire with side wall
problem specially driving on freeway.
