iomoge2:You were not cheated. Tire patching or plugging is per spot which requires a patch/insert/cement/labour per spot 1 Like |

iomoge2: The tire shop I use charges the same amount for every nail they remove while tire inflation is free. It's part of the package. If you used a road side vulcanizer, then I expect it to be cheaper than that. |

iomoge2: Standard lagos price for pumping is 200 per tyre. As for the nail, you can negotiate. Mainly between 700 -1000. Nobody has mentioned Winda. I noticed its widely used in kano |

Please 2004 accord i4 wobbles/vibrates only while accelerating from 80kmph to 100kmph. While I’m within that speed range if I take my foot off the throttle pedal the vibration stops. Please what might be the issue with the car? Also my steering pulls slightly to the right hand side while in motion Piyke adanny01 thebigkendo |

thebigkendo: It could have definitely come from any of the bold. How about no tire rotation since original installation . Only saying that if you subject 2 tires of the same make (brand new and an aged one) to these same stresses, I would expect the 'aged' one to fail first ceteris paribus To your second point, I don't agree tires expire after 4 years either. My reference to changing my tires every 4 years or at the signs of structural failure (whichever comes first) is just personal practice. What I don't recommend is using thread wear as the sole indicator for when to replace a tire. |

lilkech: Check your CV axles aka shaft Also go for alignment & balancing then check your brake rotors.. If I were in your shoes.. I will eliminate from the easier.. -Check tires for roundness -balancing and alignment -Brake rotor -Then CV axles and other suspensions parts.. Tie rods, linkages, ball joints etc 1 Like |

EgunMogaji2: Well used tires aren't always in the worst conditions. For people who own cars with 19" rims and upwards get cheap original tires is a real pocket hammer.... last time I bought new tires for my 22" set me back about N120K for each tire... |
Re: What I Saw At A Wheel Balancing Place (tire Safety) by EgunMogaji2: 3:46am On Jan 06, 2020 |
LeJeun3: I don’t compromise on safety and I have no “automotive” respect for anyone that uses used tires. I’ve ran 22s before so I know about cost. Safety first. |
