    Pag sinabing Re thread iyun yung lalaliman lang ulet ung mga grrove ng tires to make it look makapal. Pag re cap yun yung nilalagyan ng additional rubber sa tires para magamit pa. Tama po ba?

    Re-thread = lalaliman? Di ko alam ginagawa pala to. Is there enough rubber to make the threads deep again? Hope someone can clarify.

    Better be safe that sorry. Minsan kasi, sa konting pagtitipid natin eh lalo pa tayong nadidisgrasya. Kung gamit mo naman lagi yung ride mo, bili ka la lang siguro ng bago.

    Nicolodeon has a point. Ok lang yan and basta inspect mo na lang lagi lagi iyong gulong mo. Mapa brand new din naman may road mishap na nangyayari eh, kadalasan sumasabog iyong gilid.

    Interesting. Thanks.

    Sa trucks naman pala e. I wonder if there are car tires like that? Not that I'd get them, just curious. I'd rather get new ones than rethread for my peace of mind.

    well my point was to point out the differences.. between recapping and retreading.. i dnt think they make car tires that are regroovable..
