Tire Repair - How? 200

Thanks for the info. Sounds simple enough.

"And this was on BIAS PLY tires only not Radials."
The kit I saw was for radial tires.

"AND they mark the rim and tire so they can remount with a much smaller chance of needing a rebalance"
Yeah, I got the feeling I was being scammed. But if they're holding your tire hostage, you pay up.

A later time, I took a tire in and told them to honour the waranty and fix the tire. I'd get the tire balanced elsewhere, cheaper. The service manager told me that unless I got the tire balanced by them, he'd void all future warantees on the tire. I went above his head. (He needed to be reminded that the law says I can take my business to any auto repair shop I want).
