I will drive long (about 1500 miles) in the

tire is still safe enough, especially on the
hot southern highways.

thanks for your suggestion.



as long as the puncture was in the tread area of the tire, a repair is okay. If it was anywhere near the sidewall, the tire must be replaced.

contours, deloreans & fiats, oh my!
