Drove my car at 80 kph for 8 km on a flat tire

[vel0city]

Mga sir, ang engot ko

Did I damage the car/rims/tires? Not sure how long I've been driving it malambot. The steering became stiff today on my way to BGC. Left the car parked for about 10 hrs, going home I noticed that the front left tire looked malambot. I decided to drive it home because imo it didn't look that bad. I'll have it inflated at the gas station near my house. Drove EDSA for 60-80 kph and didn't feel anything different in the steering since I was just driving straight. I did not hear any kalampag too. When I got to Shell, the air in the front left tire was only 13 na dapat 30. The rest of the tires were at 29 so it looks like napako or something yung front left tire.

Does casa repair tires or is there any place in BGC that can repair tires?

Ok pa yan if may 13psi pa na natira.

Just inspect visually after vulcanizing and pakiramdaman.

Salamat sir. Sana nga hindi nasira, wala sa budget ko bagong gulong, mas lalo na rims

since budget is an issue... check mo lang if the tire can still hold pressure...

Although there's a reason kung bakit sya bumaba ng 13psi so visit a vulcazing shop...

check mo siguro every other day, kung 30psi pa din after a week or two. ok pa yan!

In that case avoid abusing your tires. No heavy loads, no prolonged high speed runs, and keep them at the proper pressure. Google "tire blowout" for more info.

Natatakot na ko gamitin sasakyan ko mga sir. Pumupunta ako sa cavite pag weekend 80 kms din siguro, dumadaan ng skyway at slex

Bili sana ako Michelin na 4 pero January pa ko magka budget. Nag back read ako sa isang thread at yun ang recommended ng members

The only way to know for sure is to remove the tire and check how much material got stripped from running flat. if it's just a speck, no worries. if its quite a bit, like more than 100 gms or rubber material...its probably compromised already and won't be safe to use anymore.

Tire size & specs? If not a low aspect ratio tire, chances of retaining whatever service life it had left should be above median. Have it thoroughly inspected upon fixing the puncture....then, move it rear, or better yet...spare. Diminished safety isn't worth the risk nor savings.

205/55/R16. Sabi ng gasoline boy ang kapal pa ng tires, visually makapal pa nga. 6 yr old tires.

Kailangan po when I move rear, both front tires? I plan to buy new tires pero early next year sana, palit 4 na.

Again, it's the inside that gets gutted and scratched up by the rim when a wheel is run flat. You have to remove the tire and see how much tire material got removed inside...where it got removed (most likely near the sidewall and tire thread area) and if there's a lot of material removed, it's a no-go sign. If you value your life.

Tire shop workers will be able to tell? Do you recommend I replace all 4 tires since it's 6 yrs old na?

even you, will be able to tell.
the damage is visible.

yun sira lang ang pabaklas mo, kung di naman time to rotate wag mo na rotate
tapos tignan mo kung nagmarka na yung rim doon sa tires mismo
kung sobrang bumaon na, replace mo nalang if di naman, pwede pa

[_Qwerty_]

kung 6 years old na.. replace all 4 na.. safety first.

Move it rear is based on old, misguided info. New/better tires should always go in the rear.

Tire Tech: Where to Install New Pairs of Tires?

"When tires are replaced in pairs...the new tires should always be installed on the rear axle and the partially worn tires moved to the front."

Rear tire blowout = uncontrollable snap oversteer.

Thanks for the correction, doc.[emoji106]
Front blowout, the steering is still controllable. Rears? Can't. Sensible.[emoji106]

yes, casa can repair punctured tires, just like every other tire shop.
but it'll take as long as an un-scheduled pms, and much more expensive.
hanap kayo ng ordinary tire shop along the way.

ps.
i always have a tire inflator in the car. i can inflate not-too-much-punctured tires comfortably, so's i can drive her to the tire shop for a more permanent repair.

and yes,
13 psi ain't so bad.
it's still drive-able. jut don't go running over big road imperfections, humps, and craters.

tire inflator is a good investment, I got mine for less than 1k at it does it job.
