nah my pops works at sams club and he got one of his buddies in the tire shop to hook it up for me. worked fine.

 

I would never trust a sidewall patch job.

I had the same exact issue. I got a screw at 5k miles. I just wound up getting one new tire from Costco. The other option is to find someone selling just 1 wheel/tire combo. There wasn't anything like that and I needed to drive my car. So a new tire was my only option.

maybe in an emergency situation i'd do it, but agreed- it's not very practical to patch a sidewall and continue to use the tire.

 

ive got a brand new michelin from my 05 si, but im thinkin it was 16". can someone confirm? if its the same, ill let it go for the low.

 

i have one from my 06 rsx s with about the same amount of my miles on it. how about $60 plus shipping

 

yea shops said they cant repair it because its outside the belt, the nail is keeping the tire patched bc of the way its in there, but eventually it will wiggle its way out.

siko i sent you a message.
