Puncture Repair $15 (Save $10 or 40%) at CDT (City Discount Tyres)

20

Was looking through CDT's (previously TTF - The Tyre Factory) website and came across this. Worked for me in Kingsbury - VIC this morning. Does mention 'at participating stores only', but not sure if there's a list. All it says is 'For any clarification, please contact your City Discount Tyres local retailer'.

Each voucher gets created upon click of the 'Download' from what I can tell, but they seem to be the saem each time.

Excludes Light Truck, 4WD and Luxury Vehicles.

    I just buy my own tyre repair kit for around $15 and it does around 6 car tyre hole repairs. I've done one easily enough about 3 months ago and it works, no air escapes. True OzB style.

    • This is for the lazy / time restrained OzBargainers, such as myself.

      There's also this for people around the area: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/132260

      Push through plugs are a temporary repair.

      For anyone thinking of saving a few bucks with DIY tyre repair. Please take the time to learn how to use the equipment safely and consider the cost to yourself and your family if one of those tyres were to fail on a highway.

        What do you mean by 'fail'? The tyre would go flat just like when you get a puncture from a nail on the road? What's the diff?

        • The difference on a highway is the speed of the vehicle. Many people wouldn't notice a tyre that's down 10PSI but that's fairly significant on an average car tyre.

          Low pressure means increased flex and heat which increases wear of the sidewall and this means more chance of a wall blowing out. Rubber becomes harder and more brittle with age so it's more likely on an older tyre.

          It's rare but I've seen the result and don't take the chance with my family.

          Think what would happen if you blew a front tyre at 100+ kph around a bend.

      • Not quite true, I have done track days on plugged tyres. It wasnt recently plugged either and its been at least 3 different times on various cars/tyres/tracks

        Its not for everyone but I would rather do it then throw away a $400+ tyre

        • There are better references out there but I found this quickly

          Punctures in tubeless tyres must only be repaired by fitting a vulcanized plug or patch from the inside of the tyre. In all cases the tyre must be removed from the rim to check for internal damage. Plugs that are fitted from the outside do not provide a permanent repair. Tyre repairs are only allowed in the tread area and are best performed by a reputable tyre dealer.

          These are commonly referred to as a mushroom plug and cost about $25 fitted for an average tyre. These are considered a permanent repair, the external push through plugs that people are plugging here are not.

          There are also standards as to which areas on a tyre can be safely repaired and how. This is very important!

          By all means get yourself an emergency tyre repair kit (I always carry one) but get a decent metal handled set and learn how to use it. They're great to get you out of a remote location.

      • I can say I have done at least 3-4 of these and never had an issue, however I have probably had 3 repairs at mechanics and 1 of those was bad after a couple of months. Small sample size I know, but as the saying goes: 'if you want something done right… "

        Also you can normally cut the plugs in half and they work fine, the plug goes in doubled over, so as long as it is still going through the thickness of the tyre you should be ok.

        Of course this solution is for issues in the tread or road facing part of the tyre, issues in the side wall are a different story

  • I posted an earlier one for a FREE puncture repair, you should have used it!
