I got my first ever puncture on the weekend (of course it had to happen after the expensive tyres went on). Anyway, I figured it wasn't a big deal cus they only cost like $25 to have repaired but it turns out that I drove too far on the flat tyre and too much damage has been done on the inside to just repair the hole. So only a few weeks after putting them on one of my tyres already needs replacing and I have to go for a week with the ugly spare wheel on, so p*ssed off!!
yea but by the sounds of it davway, this was a new tyre...
u should have put on ur spare when u got the puncture instead of driving on it dj_pom82

I'll know for the future to not drive at all once I notice a flat, I honestly didn't realise i was doing any damage and the tyre looks fine from the outside. It was hard to pick that it was flat at all, 19's have a very low profile!

Oh crap! I have a tyre that has a very, very slow leak, so I pump it up every now and then to keep it going. LOL! I might have to get a newie... There goes another $150 - stupid Yoko A539s!
