Tires and Tubes

tncruzin · 04-10-2005, 08:27 PM

Are there any repairs available for a tire with a cut and the tube slightly bulging through the hole? I know with car tires they can put a boot on the inside sometimes.

I have used that method in the past. I'm sure your local tire shop can fix you up.

I'm sure there are. I have seen some really big boots for truck tires.

In the past I've seen tractor tires that were laced up with bailing wire on the sidewall.. then had a huge thick boot, or even a section o fthe old tube laid out on the inside, and a new tube.. Ok, for slow moving tractor.. NOT ok for anything going down the highway!
