Long story short. Crack head took and ice pick to my tires.


Right now they are plugged and patched on the sidewalls. :nilly::nilly::nilly::nilly::nilly::nilly::nilly:

I want new tires. Some one suggested I get tubes put in the tires. Again I want new tires.

Any one want to point out the pro and cons of tubes VS tires? I know nothing about this stuff so I need some help.
 
The thing is, the sidewall is a dangerous place to make a repair, around here shops won't even make a repair on the sidewall fearing liability issues. I'd start thinkin about new tires.
 
There is no way to put a tube in a rim that is designed for tubeless tires. If the sidewall is damaged than you need NEW TIRES! You insurance doesn't cover vandalism?
 
My insurance does cover tires due to vandalism but I have a large deductable.

I personally do not want to get tubes in my tires. I feel that they should be replaced with new tires. The problem lies with the person that should be paying for the replacments. That person is not really wanting to nor has the money to replace them.

My tires are a little expensive so coming up with almost a grand on a whim right now is a little hard.... I sold off some frogs which I was not happy about but I was really stuck with no choice. Now the person that SHOULD be paying me back is a little upset that I did not go with just getting tubes put in the tires..

So I was just trying to get some ammo as to why I was not and did not get tubes put in them.
 
My tires are the only thing between me and the road
Before I knew what I know about wheels my approach was to
ask the salesman wat he recommended I put on my vehicle
then ask wat the next best model was
I love a deal
I love my money
I don't cheap out when I buy tires
