Explaining #tire repair to the #novice. Have your local auto center:
1) Always #patch, never just plug a tire
2) Never repair a speed-rated tire
3) Never patch outside tire industry, recommended area (no “close to,” or sidewall patch)
Celebrating 2,000 broadcasts of #CarCare4Clueless this week! When I started this project, in 2011, never thought I would be telling #US#Canadian consumers how to “fix” their car care woes, answering emails, seven years later! Here’s to 2,000 more!
