Is it not okay to plug and patch run flat tires ?

If it was fixed at a tire shop they use a plug on the hole first to keep water from getting into the metal cords of the tire. And in most cases they will drill the hole out even bigger to be able to get the plug to fit.

The will then put a patch over the plug on the inside of the tire and a couple other small details and call it good and put the tire back on your car.

So IMO if its okay to patch these tires you really did not get ripped off.


Oh and I am drunk and high right now driving down the road typing this on my iPad. And I am going to buy some tires

Hahahahahahahahaha
