nismoip Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Hiya guys Was wonder on when people get a blow out on say for example the rear left corner after a couple of thousand miles do you then change the rear right aswell to keep both tire wear inline or just change the one thats blown?

rtbiscuit Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 if they are fairly new and not worn in, i'd do one, if they are old i'd do both. but its got to be the same brand, front and back, if notand you go for a different brand, then its all 4 to change.

I would Just change the blown out one as long as theres a decent enough tread on the other one. If the other ones are low then you may as well change them both/all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Measure the tread and see the difference to stock. Anything more than a 2mm or so and get 2 new tyres. After a couple of thousand miles you should be ok replacing one, but it depends how hard you drive. What caused the blow out? Cant the tyre be bunged?

Cant the tyre be bunged? can be repaired but will have to be done in 2 places as somehow got 2 nails embedded in difference places. Better off with a new tire.
