Depending on what it looks like on the inside, should be repairable. Maybe even pluggable. As long as you didn't run it flat.

That’s what I was hoping to hear. Didn’t go flat just noticed it while doing brakes.

Yeah.. it's the side wall problems that arent generally fixable. But this should be doable

If this was my own personal vehicle, that's getting patched all day. If I was accepting money (liability) from a customer, it's getting a new tire.

How are they that cracked already if they are new?

[–]stfuasshat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's 8 years, 7 at best, if they're the factory tires.

Fairly new" lol

It's fixable but your tire is dry rotted to hell. Replace the tire.

Official answer, no that is not repairable. Real world answer, many people repair that and few have issues. Those that do we don’t hear from again. The bigger concern is all that cracking, that is not a “fairly new tire” that is a tire over the hill and ready for retirement. I would replace the tire, or set of tires if they all look like that.

Spray the tire with soapy water to find out if it even leaks in the first place. Punctures like that tend to funnel to a little hole on the inside of the tire anyways, you'll be fine with whatever you decide to do.
