Why Flat Tire Repair Matters

Proper tire pressure is essential for traction, safety, fuel economy, and even suspension health. When a tire loses air, you may experience:

  • Poor handling or braking
  • Uneven tread wear
  • Lower gas mileage
  • Increased risk of a blowout
  • TPMS warning lights
  • Vehicle pulling to one side

Driving on a low or flat tire can lead to irreversible sidewall damage, so it’s important to have the tire inspected as soon as possible by a trained professional.

Can Your Flat Tire Be Safely Repaired?

Our technicians follow industry-approved guidelines to ensure every repair is safe, long-lasting, and meets Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) standards.

A tire can typically be repaired when:

  • The puncture is in the tread area (not the sidewall)
  • The puncture is ¼-inch (6mm) or smaller
  • The tire has more than 2/32" of tread depth
  • There is no internal structural damage

If the tire is repairable, we perform a professional plug-patch repair, which includes:

  • Dismounting the tire
  • Inspecting the inside for hidden damage
  • Cleaning and prepping the puncture area
  • Applying rubber cement
  • Installing a combination plug/patch for a permanent seal
  • Rebalancing the tire

If the tire cannot be safely repaired, we’ll review replacement options—no pressure, just honest guidance.
