dynaplug

[palerider]

Brand new Pilot Road 2, rear, maybe 100 miles, picked up a three-inch wire, something like a long, thin nail, but it wasn't a nail. I'm wondering if some tire shop is throwing them out in handfulls along the freeways. It was narrow and went in at a shallow angle, near the center of the contact patch. The dyna-plug inserter couldn't find the hole. I had to force it in, which created a new hole. I was hoping I was close and that the sealing compound would flow and seal the hole, but no luck. Per instructions I put in a second dynaplug, but that didn't seal it either. I just ordered a new PR2. :angry2:

I tossed the dynaplug. Might be the bee's knees for a very specific kind of hole, but I'm lookig for something with a little more latitude.

I had a hole the sticky string tool would not go into. Had no trouble finding the hole, just couldn't force the tool through. Actually got my drill and opened it up with a 1/16" bit. Sticky string went in, tire lasted another 3,000 miles, until belts started showing.

Looks as good as the cheap WalMart one . . . .

Save the old pR 2, when it comes off have it patched on the INSIDE like they do on a car.

If you are just going to toss it, ship it to me and I'll cover the shipping (toss in the dyna plug too )
