Hi All
My last track outing left me with a punctured tire after hitting a 6" bolt in the left rear tire, cleanly in the center tread. I have 275/40/18 Nitto NT01 with about 40-50% of their life left.
What are thoughts on:
1 - Patch the tire (inside and out) and call it good
2 - Buy two new tires - assuming they would go in the front if I have 2-new and 2-used
3 - Replace them all
On a side note, in the future, I will always carry a patch kit to the track ...Would have made it much easier/quicker to get home.
THX in advance.
