Re: Fixing (pluging) slicks?
 

I`d be hesitant to use normal plugs in a thin slick, but I have used "Patch/plugs"in slicks before with good results. These are a combined patch with a plug in the center. Of course, tubes are another option, and in such a small size, likely would not add much weight. A 20" tall tire on a 14" rim would have a pretty short sidewall, so I imagine you wouldn`t run the slick pressures very low , right?

Dennis when I had the Daytona in 2007 I put new rubber on it, at that time I was only able to locate 3 tires and that was over 4 years ago. Frank

Called the w-house, about a year to late, they did a search they show stock at rocket ind. in Austrailia. there sales@rocketind.com You would think with all the tuners you could find a good used pair. John gsa612

Re: Fixing (pluging) slicks?
 

I've decided to cut the plugs as close to the inside of the tire as I can. Put patches over them. Then put a tube in them.. That should get me through the weekend. As safely as possible. I don't run real low pressures (12 to 14 pounds)
If anyone has any other ideas. Let me know.
Thanks

BTW still hoping my brand new 20 x 8 x 13 tires are supposed to be here on Wednesday.
So I might have them as well. I have a pair of steel 13 x 7" wheels to put them on.

Re: Fixing (pluging) slicks?
 

They haven't made them in 3 or 4 years so most if not all of them are used up.
I found all of my tires were worn though to the cords. That is used up.

I was just out digging around in my garage. I have a set of the 20x8x14 that I got from the
late Jimmy Berg some time ago. There is still quite a bit of wear hole left. Anyone interested?
