This just happened. the tire passed over some stone and got burst. the gash on the pther side is around 1.5-2" long straight line. Tire is pretty new with around a 8-10000 km on it max. can anyone suggest a proper way to fix it or is it a goner? tire is dunlop sp sport 702
you're tire is a goner to me you need to get a new one,why don't you use your spare in place of this and get a light weight jdm spare tire and that jdm one is cheaper than a new standard tyre
this is the donut tyre i am talking about
5th tire is a jdm tire but its not a space save Stepney. I cant use that on regular basis in any case.

Converting it to tube tyre with inside patch at the damaged area - will make it work at rear driving side but only for in-city.
Out of city runs and summers -- no-way get ready to spend another 6-7K
Hmmm. I was afraid of this....
sadly this was also the fate of a brand new michelin tyre on our corolla, it got slashed by a rock near murree. replace it
Buy new one. Don't take risk.
Tyre is the most important part of any vehicle. Don't risk by repairing it. Send it the the garbage. Get a new one. Trust me this is the best decisions and investment you will do right away. https://www.pakwheels.com/forums/news-articles-driver-education-safety/235279-tyrewise-keep-close-watch-your-tyres
Guys got a replacement new tire even though the shopkeeper was saying he could get it repaired from a company that specializes in such repairs. Thank for all the advices
Dont waste your money & time on that tyre
