Diagnostic: Tyre Damage that Requires Repair
- Most punctures of nail holes or cuts up to 6mm confined to the tread may be repaired by a tyre professional using industry-approved procedures.
- An on-the-wheel plug-only repair is not reliable and is dangerous because after a puncture the inside of a tyre must be inspected.
Diagnostic: Under inflation
- Reduces tread life through increased tread wear on the outside edges (or shoulders) of the tyre
- Generates excessive heat, which reduces tyre durability and can lead to tyre failure
- Reduces fuel economy through increased rolling resistance
