Patched tires

Any issues running at high speed and hard acceleration ？Just patched my 21" PSS

Chicago X · 03-27-2019, 06:49 PM

While a well-done patch should allow for full acceleration and braking, I was told (perhaps incorrectly) that one should treat a patched tire as one speed rating lower than original.

Z->V->H

When I replaced my MPSS’s, one rear had 4 patches, no issues at high speeds.

When my Pirelli P Zero on my FtypeR was patched, Pirelli told me that the speed rating is no longer guaranteed.

While you may have no problem doing it, you lose manufacturer guarantee with patching. Everyday driving is all good even highway, but not recommended for track.

Agree, this was on my F15, not tracking it.

Thanks all

I only drive up to 120 mph So it will be fine for me

As long as you are not hard braking or hard accelerating on that patched spot, you'll be good.

I think I remember you from over on the F-Type forums. You got rid of yours for the R8, if I remember correctly?
I had two F-Type Coupe Rs before

I still have my FtypeR

Love the exhaust sound on the F-type R.

Wish our 4.4l V8s sounded more like that.

I ran Watkins Glen with a plug in my tire. You'll be fine.
