Default Good tire patch.

About a month ago I went through a huge nail on my stock RE050A's... tonight I got a huge screw lodged in my rear PS2 on the same side ironically. I need a good shop in the gta that can do a good tire patch on a high performance tire without all the ******** run around i encountered last time (i ended up buying new tires because they were getting pretty bald).

Any reccomendations would be greatly appreciated asap! Sorry if this doesn't make sense it's 1 am and i'm pretty livid.

Thanks guys.

patch it up your self? dont think theres any harm done if you buy that string from Canadian tire, stick it in there, and voila, your set. Dont think theres any difference doing it to a "high performance tire" to a regular tire if your not racing it everyday... thoughts?

^Do it yourself. Its actually quite easy. Just buy a tire patch kit from canadian tire they work great. Comes with the tool, rubber string and rubber adhesive. Shops that do tire repair use the same thing. Wouldn't race on it though, but for road use it is fine. I have used self-patched tires till the tire was worn out from basic treadwear and never had a problem.
