screwed!!!!

literally.

my front right tire has been screwed on the edge.

I have BF goodridge sport and it still seem to have good tread (i think. how do I check this? i tried the penny trick but that doesn't tell how much tread is left).

What's my best option? repair? replace?

 

dude...sorry to say this but you're going to have to replace the tire.

 

is it loosing air?
Unless its in the sidewall, it can be plugged.

 

he said on the edge of the tire so it's a wrap i think. been there...sux.

 

I left it in there cuz I think it will loose air as soon as I pull it out. At the moment, I think it's slowly loosing air.

it's sort of on the side, punctured in a 45 degree angle...

I have no idea where this could've come from... I havn't driven off road or near construction yard.

It isn't even a nail. its a freakin SCREWWWW

I''ll go to good year that's a mile away from my house tomorrow....

 

given that they can repair it, is it safe to drive on a repaired tire? hard?

 

i dont know about good year but discount tire does free plugs if thats all thats needed. and they carry bf tires also. just a thought.

 

So does Kauffman Tire.

 

free plugs ok ill go there then . i hope there is one near by

 

if its on the sidewall, it can't and shouldn't be plugged and/or patched

 

ya that's the ting its, at the edge..not the sidewall but not the tread either.

 

I wouldn't test it get a new tire. Thats what I think.

 

New tire time...

 

ok. new tire it is.

so when it comes to replacing other tires, do I replace all four?

 

Yes.

 

So...

I have two screws.

and they told me I have to replace all four tires cuz of tread difference.

ARGGHHHHHH!!!!

 

same sht happned to me

 

I'd go to Good Year (or where you bought it) and see if there is a warranty on the tire... I had a set one time, and as I was leaving I got a nail stuck in two tires by the time I got home. I went back the next day and they replaced both for free

 

nah those tires came with my car used. so I don't have receips/

I'm at Dekalb Tire and I'm puttin gon 225/50/16 Exalto A/S on it right now.

I 'll be sure to ask about warranty...definately road hazard warranty
