Whether you should replace your tire after a puncture depends on the severity and location of the damage. If the puncture is in the tread and smaller than 1/4 inch, it may be repairable with a plug or patch, as long as it’s not near the sidewall. However, if the puncture is large or if the tire has sidewall damage, replacement is generally recommended since repairs in these areas may compromise the tire’s structural integrity and safety. Additionally, if your tire has multiple punctures or has worn out significantly, it’s better to replace it. It’s also essential to consider the age of the tire, as older tires, even without visible damage, may need replacing due to decreased performance and safety risks. Always consult with a professional to evaluate whether a repair or replacement is the safest option.
