Okay, I have got a pretty big piece of the sidewall that is cut back. It is not all of the way through but it is to the steel cord. It leaks and I do not want to buy a new tire.

Is there a place that will patch it. Or is that a waste of time.

Thanks guys.

I'm curious about this too.....

I have a TSL that has a similar thing except not quite as deep and doesn't leak. but if anything hits it just right, there's not a lot of material to keep it from going all the way thru...........

go to napa and buy a big patch and the glue and i will come over and give you a hand lance. i have done this to two of my tsls :thumbsup: and they hold air fine, i just keep a extra patch :thumbsup:

x2 good idea!!! Thats how I would have done it.....

Kranker...

I will get a patch soon. Thanks...

I will supply the drinks for your help.

Theres a place in Reno/Sparks that will revulcanize. Cann't remember the shops name. A buddy had a nasty gash in a sx and they fixed it like new.

Try Bill in Yuba City

530-218-2174 I think

He Volconizes side walls for like $50 .. or he used to

Give him a call, he'll let u know more :thumbsup:

i put i nice cut in the side of my xterain( world shittiest tires).
i put a truck tire patch on it and it was fine.

I just picked up some patches from Napa. I figure I will try that first, then if it still leaks I will try to vulcainizing.

Thanks..

Thanks Kranker......

It is back on the wheel and holding air, for now. I am going to add some slim for double protection.

And, melting rubber and plugs wasn't as successful as I
