Please tell me its possible. Just put on my brand new corsa III last night...today it has a fackin screw.

Its the rear...im thinkin its gonna be a no on puttin in the plug but im hopin somebody out there has done it and it has worked.

 

I've plugged a dozen -- no problems.

But you do it at your own risk.

 

damn man that blows... i've never plugged one... i just get worried about the tire expanding under heat.... my buddies have done it before... on a brand new tire i'd do it but i'd keep under 75 on the highway and wear a little extra gear... (it would bother me cause i have OCD lol)

 

Plugging a tire is fine

 

can i plug it with the lil kit you buy at the auto parts store?

 

Yea, thats what I always use

If you dont want to run a plugged tire, hit me up. I will cover shipping

 

I ve plugged a bunch of tires but i only plug when i have to..... I strongly recommend patching it from the inside its easy just take the tire off and take it to a tire shop they usaully only charge like $10 to patch and the patch will last!!!!! and you dont have to worry about it expanding in the heat like a plug!!!!

 

my front tire is pluged and i hit 130 with it and i am alive

 

They sell little mushroom head plugs on bike websites. Ive went 150 not thinking about the plug and nothing happened

 

trust me, dont have a problem running a plugged tire...things brand new, just put it on last night. ****** pissed that it happened like this. my girl's friend has a place and he said that he would do it for free, just wanna make sure its cool to ride wit...def dont wanna have to buy another tire tomarrow morning.

 

I've been running a front tire w/ a plug in the bead area for months now w/ no problems.

The bike never goes over 40mph at most though... lot only.

 

Ya beat me to it... cant you plug and patch?

 

inside patch is ur best bet. i run plugs and patches. never had a problem i do it myself tho bc i dont trust other ppl. the one time i had a 'buddy' do a inside patch for me it didnt work... so for now on i do them all myself

 

oh yeah plug it up!!!!!!!!!

 

yea i dont know the exact name of it i call it a plug-patch cause when you put the patch over the hole it has a long plug that you pull thru the hole then you rubber cement and cut the access rubber off then got bang some WHOOLIES!!!!!!!:YEAH :YEAH

 

That would be my suggestion on a brand new tire Our local tire shop will only do it like that now.

 

i buy tires with holes in them all the time and plug them.....it cheap and run most of them down to the belts... never had a problem with these plugs
