I just called the guy I do bussisness with and he said he doesnt patch tires, some places might but he wont because it would only hold for awhile, and he doesnt wnat to be liable. He said I could patch it myself but wouldnt reccomend doing....so I am getting another new tire....I bought dunlops last time, any one reccomend any other tire?
