i just read somewhere on here that kal tire repairs for free:eek:

[guessboi]

^ yes and only if you want your rims damaged. unless you have steelies...

[sillysod]

Kal tire repairs for free if they are tires from Kal tire.

I went to the Kal-tire on 32nd ave NE and to get a nail removed and patched. The tire was not from kal-tire and they did it for free, did a good job with it. The tire was also on a rim, not steelie. All they asked was that I bring in a donation/food donation next time I go in

I've had free repairs on the factory alloys of my mazda. Zero Damage. Tires weren't from Kal tire either.
Guy said that they do it to build goodwill and to make "the next" sale.

Although, during winter tire mounting season, I'm sure that free flat repairs are a pretty low priority, so you might have to wait a while. Had mine repaired in the summer, and it was done in a couple hours.

if its obviously in the middle of the tread, i suggest soapy water to find the leak, remove the projectile if there is one, tire plug kit from crappy tire.

we used these at the stealership TONS, i personally never had a customer come back for ones i did, i can attest that these plugs will last until wear bars.

but if its anywhere remotely near the sidewall, get a new tire, quite dangerous upon being compressed taking a corner at high speed!
