    yep, still not the proper repair as it adds no strength to the carcase, the proper patches are quite large,

    http://www.beadelltours.com.au/tyre_report_2012.html

    have a read on there, about halfway down

    Observations from 2012
    Failed "Rubber Only" Tyre Patch

    and then further down shows a full blown repair., Remember that tyre shops are only supposed to repair the main area of the treadface and arent supposed to repair on the shoulders or sidewalls.

    Many thanks for the Beadell reference. - Well worth reading the complete site.

    - And they use Land Rovers ...

    Frm my own experience, cross-plies stood up very well against paddock damage/staking, on our farm utes and cars. (Very long time ago...)
