Title: Tire vulcaizing
Post by: LukeDuke on April 29, 2014, 12:35:06 PM
Anyone know anyone in town or in Alberta that  can vulcanize and repair holes in tires?  Got a pretty good hole i my 40” tsl and it still has lots of life left in the tread.

I asked this a while back, a mechanic friend of mine suggested I do it myself since no one would touch it... I recommend having the tire shop take the tire off the wheel so you can do it and then just have it thrown back on.
