cameron tocher Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Just a bit of advice needed. Just curbed my wheel, and I've noticed I've split the tyre. It hasn't gone deep and it hasn't gone down yet, is the tyre repairable or will I need a new one or will it be fine as it is? Also how much would it cost to get the alloy done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 That looks like a nasty cut in the tyre & will have structurally weakened the tyre wall - i'd replace to be safe Alloy wheel scuff repair prices vary according to the quality of the repair, but I guess around £30 to fix that ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cameron tocher Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 Is the tyre to damaged for it to be repaired? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney871 Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Aye, no way to repair that. Any cuts to the bead or sidewall means a new tyre. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
