Tire replacement, need to shave it?

I got a screw close enough to the side wall of my tire where Kauffman won't patch it since the patch will ride up on to the sidewall. The tires are only a year and a half old. They have a new tire they will put on but I am worried about its circumfrance compared to the wear on the existing tires. What is within tollerance and if it is out of that realm are there any shops in Gwinnett that would shave the new tire to match the existing ones?

Maybe check some used tire shops?

 

1/4" difference in circumference?

 

Thanks. Will give them a call.

 

you can't really measure tires by years, depending on the driver you can't even measure it by mileage. tread depth helps though..

 

We are going to measure after they install it this afternoon.

 

The guys over at Gran Turismo hooked me up in a jiff. Thanks for the heads up.
