I bought a full set of Goodyear 3's about 3K miles ago....
One of the rears now has a nail in it and is losing about 5 psi a week...... Only a matter of time here ! - (I didn't find the nail till tonight...)
What's the view on replacing that ONE only ?
Also, anyone in the Chester area know where I can get one quick, at lunch time, at short notice ???
Cheers,
Mark

I think an inch from the outer wall is repairable and should be repaired/guaranteed. I even had a puncture on the corner of the tread/sidewall on a Golf GTi tyre, the tyre place could not repair it but sent it away to a BS approved repairer and it came back a week later OK. Obviously no good if you have to run on a spacesaver all week.

Cheers for the advice - I actually replaced 2.... The puncture was two separate nails on opposite tyre walls, so no repair as an option -
Never mind - as the tyres are all thats between the road and me - best be sure I guess...
Thanks,
Mark
