Need to Repair or Replace A Damaged Tire? —South Apple Valley



Repair is An Affordable Alternative to Replacement

You know how important your tires are for the safety of your drive. You also know that the quality and state of your tires are something that changes. One of the easiest and best practices you can have in maintaining the safety of your vehicle is to inspect your tires every few weeks. Check for tread wear and damage like foreign objects wedged into the tread or punctured through the tire, as well as sidewall damage caused by getting too close to a curb or similar action. Did you know a tire repair is an option for replacement? The location of the damage to your tire and other elements of the damage can determine whether you can repair or must replace the tire. Big Apple Automotive in Apple Valley, California, has ASE Master Certified technicians who can help you make the right choice when repairing or replacing a damaged tire.

Can Your Tire be Repaired?

When our ASE-Master Certified technicians inspect your tire, there are a few things they are looking for that will determine whether your tire qualifies for repair or if we must replace it. The location of the damaged area is central to whether the tire repair is a viable option. Only damage in the tread qualifies for repair. Damage to any other area of the tire will require tire replacement. The size of the damage also plays a role. If your tire’s tread damage has resulted in a hole larger than ¼ inch (6mm) in diameter, tire replacement is your only option. If you had to drive a long distance on a flat tire, the technicians at Big Apple Automotive will also check for damage to the tire’s sidewall. When a tire isn’t fully inflated, and you drive on it, the sidewalls can buckle and scrape. Any sign of sidewall damage shows a likely interior weakness that has compromised the tire’s safety, and our technicians will recommend you replace the tire.
