Can.. now with new Techniques you can tampal all types of lubang.

Worst comes to worst.. They insert Inner Tube for you.. But not good on tyres which are made for Tubeless because the inside don't have groves to grip the tube.

Anyway.. My old tyres have all types of tampal.. Still can use very very long... Highway still fly 140km... Corners still hantam...

All depends on luck..

how much u did your tampal, johnson

hey, if i let them do my rim how long it takes ar? 1 whole day ah? only 1 piece
still under warranty

 

[Archangel]

if the hole is at the tyre sidewall i don't think can tampal. but else where should be able to.

btw, u sure it is ur tyre has hole or it is because ur rim dented since u hit it.

Tampal I got 'special price' RM 2 only.. But usually is RM 10 i think.. Like Archangel said. If at certain sidewall, cannot tampal.. But I am seen people does that before. Dunno dangerous or not.. Since more presure there.

Rims.. These old people here takes 1 week to do.. but if small scratch and good shop.. 1 day should be enuf.

all the best bro. hope it is just a hole in the tyre.

sidewall repair is a risk. whether is can be repair or not will depend on the angle & the size of the hole. if your trye beads is damage sure will have to buy new tyre liao. if u drive very hard repairing the sidewall is really dangerous. just be warn.
cheers.

If the sidewall is gone, best to spend the money and replace it.

I had to replace a 1 week old tire cuz the sidewall blew out... no warranty on that :( Best to spedn the money n be safer ratehr than have a blow out when travellign at 150kmh.

 

[simplythebest]

I think is just a very tiny hole, 2 days the tyre flat .. but not flat 100% la , left about 50%? hehehe, i just get my rim repaired and i hope the tyre still can be use enough liao.

my 1.3 stock how to 2 fast 2 furious leh? and somemore I dont really like khesas highway, I use khesas like once twice a month? :lol:

[simplythebest]

tampal liao, but my rim the fella say cannot claim warranty :( the part not included :( , nvm :D :lol:

 

[puffcurry]

:D better buy new tyre now..its confirmed dat there will be an increase in tyre price new year...5% for the local tyres and even more for bigger sizes...

 

[simplythebest]

my all 4 tyres still can travel for about 20-25,000 km's .. maybe mid of next year ;) then 1 biji 15" falken rm 200? :ph34r:

 

[ryuichi]

guys, from my own experiences, whether the hole is in the middle or sidewall, i'd tampal it b4......
the work done by an old man whom so called challenge me on the side wall of the tyre that he gurantee can tampal n last .....
well, i'd give it a try coz nothing to lose...... so far the hole or tampal at the side wall no problemo n can go for 150km/h ....... ;) ;)

justmy experiences n 2 cents

 

[Dr.Jesus]

where is that place to tampal?

 

[Archangel]

the track, the shoulder & the sidewall of the tyre all can be tampal except for the beads. but also depend on how big is the hole la.

I'll never tampal the sidewall n us it. i would buy new tyre. (just my personal preference).

if u put the tyre that has been tampal through a Finite Element Analyze test and Temp monitoring of the tyre u will know y not safe to use the tyre with sidewall tampaled on high speed (i.e 180km/h).
