Is it safe to continue using it?

[Dinosaka]

Hi,

 

One of my tyre having this chip off at the sidewall...not sure how I got it but is it safe to still continue driving on it? Anyone experience this before?

 

Thanks

[Kspchew]

for safety sake, do change them. you never know what will happen, especially during cornering.

 

cheers

the actual tire is extremely thick, in malaysia they regroove used tires and sell as new

i don't think such a small scratch will be any problem

[Linlaopei]

hi TS its safe, dun worry.

[Dafansu]

Doesn't look that deep. I won't change. Best is to consult tyre shops

Anyone who buys regroove car tyres as new must be blind Re-grooving are normally carried out on commercial tyres that are designed for re-grooving and later retreading.

I see yr tire thread already quite worn so might as well change tire.

 

Remember to change at least 2 tires on same axle together.

 

If can change all 4 better

 

OH I JUST NOTICED THIS TIRE IS QC FAILED. BETTER CHANGE IT IMMEDIATELY THEN.

Try to get the slight damage fill up with two parts A & B rubber curing compounds. Not many tyre shops have such compounds.

Did ty sell u at a big discount or normal price?

 

Federal i consider not a very good tire though. Being QC failed makes it even worse.

 

Quickly change.

Ya that window sud hv numbers n letters. Usually yom.

 

If its blank or scratched out...it failed QC. Problem u dun know what was its defect.

 

Usually destroyed but sometimes if defect considered not too serious....its sold as a cheap defective tire fr little old ladies who seldom drive over 40kmh n 500km per year. Hahaha.
