What to do with tyres...

Post by Buggerific »

Hi all... Got a pretty simple question.

Had a flat this arvo, there's a bit of a cut in my sidewall. Is it worth repairing or should it just be replaced?

Also who knows where I should go to get some Mickey Thompson 33's at a decent price. Know of anyone who does package prices - I'd be buying a full set of 5.

Also im in sydney's northern beaches.


Thanks in advance

cuts in sidewalls are no good has it cut the cords in the sidewall yet if so throw it away if it hasn't i'd maybe chance it as a spare.
