Tyre Puncture - Repair or Replace?

[Figoian]

Hi Thanks for the information. But my punctures are rather strange. it is like someone has done it, the holes are like small pin holes. The strangest part is that there are holes also on the inside of the tyre!!! How can that be?

In case of Only Holes and No Nails, there are 2 possibilities. It could be that the nail pierced in and jumped off, or a sabotage as you said. But, if you commuting in the area I mentioned, it's high likely that you have been a victim of such a cheap trap.

Hi All
I have decided to replace the tyre with a new one. It will cost around 4200 INR. Thanks for all the wonderful answers.

I guess you mentioned in one of the initial threads that tyre is pretty new and there is no damage to side wall as well. In this case, you could have bought a tube and converted in to a tube type tyre. Even if you were worried about punctures at high speed etc this could have been converted as spare wheel. Didn't need replacement in my opinion
