I took my tyre to ATS as I had a nail in the tread.The tyre had only done 8K miles.He looked at at then got a see through gauge to measure how far it was from the tyre wall and said it was just repairable. However once he had got the tyre off he called me over to see it .The nail had bend inside and was touching the tyre wall. He said he could not repair it as the repair patch would flex too much and would eventually come off . So £98 later a new tyre had to be fitted.
