the real problem appears appears when one go to market in search of 01 tyre and comes to know that the tyres he was using are outdated so he had to change whole set (faced twice because of lack of company operated shops and dealers import as per their profit margin not considering buyers requirement).
My perception is low profile tyre is relatively safe in case of tyre burst when compared to high profile.
btw would anyone like to share behavior of RF tyres (run flat) on such type of tyre killer pot holes?

in general side wall of tyre is called profile, low profile means tyre with short side wall.

within 24-36 hours mostly. you recieve ana utomated message.. the hole is fixed.
If you have wheels covered inder insurance.. you can file a claim and city then have to pay for everything.

The things get wrose in rainy days when one think it a water pudlle but in actual its a pot hole.

do insurance policies also cover such damages there?

[fazalwahab11375]

well it depends what coverage you are having on policy. Some people get just wheels and tire replacement policy from dealers at time of buying a car. Some get it through the insurance. Mostly people dont carry it.

do insurance policies also cover such damages there?
