what is this Latin speak!!!!!!
tire sectioning/vulcanizing, huh.  You can fix a radial tire's sidewall???
I'm confused, This tire is like brand new.  Fixing it would redeem me to the wife
need more info, HOW

ummm... maybe call Wheels in Motion

I guess its a form of heating and melting the rubber together into one piece again... similar method to what re-treading a semi tire is... this Guy has been in the tire business for 30ish years and said that vulcanizing is becoming a lost art but he'll still do it... I don't know what he would charge but he was reasonable when he mounted and balanced my tires (80 cash for all 4)

Just checked his business card and its actually "tires in motion" his name is Glenn Jansen and the shop number is 403-250-1188 and his cell is 403-862-0074

Called tires in motion. And spoke to the guy who does the repairs. He said no dice. Can not repair if it has torn the nylon. He said a nail fine not a gash. He said it would just bulge. Guess I'm still at square one.
Thank Wyattjo for the lead anyway

No problem too bad it didn't work out... he has awesome prices on new tires as well

There is a good utube video on how to section a tire. Do not know how to link it.
