    Depends on where the hole is as to whether or not they can fix it. Most of the times, they can't fix holes through the sidewall.
    Drag racing is for fast cars. Solo 2 is for fast drivers.

    usually kal tire can patch it up, but like warren says, a hole on the side wall is going to be a bitch!

    if they're z rated tires not worth it...once a z rated tire gets a hoel and is repaired it looses its z rating..may not matter to you but matters to others

    I doubt a jimmy has z rated tires! lol
    You start with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.

    tire fixing takes like 5 mins to do. As long as the hole is not on the sidewall then it should be easy.
