Frequently Asked Questions

Can you drive with a flat tire?

It is generally not advisable to drive with a flat tire because it can damage the tire, the rim and possibly other parts of the car. If you have a flat tire, try to stop in a safe location as soon as possible. If it is necessary to drive a short distance, do so at a very slow speed and avoid long distances.

How does car tire repair spray work?

Car tire repair spray is a temporary solution for small punctures. The spray is sprayed into the tire through the valve and forms a sealing layer on the inside of the tire, stopping the hole. It is a quick solution to get you to a safe location or to our tire center. Note that it is important to have the tire professionally inspected and repaired as soon as possible. If you leave the product in the tire too long, it becomes almost impossible to repair the tire correctly, and it must be replaced with a new one anyway.

How much does a tire repair cost?

The cost of repairing a tire can vary. It depends on the type of damage and the type of vehicle. On average, prices for a standard tire repair are between 30 and 40 euros. For a specific quote, it’s best to contact our tire center or stop by with your car.

How safe is a prop in a tire?

Repairing a tire with a prop is now an outdated method. This used to be a commonly accepted method, called the “prop” or “wick” or “chic. A repair cord was pulled through the tire along the outside and the fit was sealed. The major disadvantage of such “repair,” is that the mechanic does not check the tire along the inside and thus does not notice the inner damage.

Meanwhile, a prop repair will also get you a re-inspection if it is noticed at the inspection station.

Any self-respecting tire center, repairs your tire along the inside with a vulcanizing patch. This way we can be sure that the tire is still intact from the inside. Safety is the priority.
