damage or not? ZCP wheel

USCTROJANSFIGHTON · 12-23-2016, 06:37 PM

While driving 200 feet..my TPMS light came on. Pull over when it was safe. 1/8 mile down the street. Completely flat tire. Fuc!!!!!! Drove slowly (20 mph) for the next 7/10 of a mile to gas station. Air up to 40psi. drove to tire repair place..They plug it.

The damage was on the inner-most thread...right before you hit the sidewall.
They plug it.

Any damage to wheel? Tires? So I drove about 1200 Yards before I could Air-up the tire.
The tire was completely flat..i.e.rim resting on rubber. REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRE
Unmount,.Clean. CANT find any crack. No issue of balance.

Wheel should be fine but that tire should be replaced. Compromised the sidewall by driving on it implement flat plus the plug is too close to the sidewall.

Thanks. I ditch the tire today. Took the tires off my 220 wheel..and mounted on the ZCP. Tire went into the garbage. I figure...once you a have a couple of complete revolution...the sidewall was history.

Just glad I didnt damage the wheel driving that 1200 yard
