What are you doing right now? - Page 353 - Toyota Yaris Forums

33OH · 01-09-2009, 04:31 PM

One of my stock Yaris tires keeps going flat, and I can't really afford (and don't want to) buy a new tire.

Do you think my rims would be too bad in the snow? Keep in mind I drive tons of highway driving every day.

is it pluggable? Running at a lower pressure is what is needed for driving in snow

ChinoCharles · 01-09-2009, 04:35 PM

I think you'd be fine. Its almost over dude.

Not sure. I haven't even looked at it. And it keeps going down to about 15psi and stops leaking then. Takes it about a week to do so.

Normally I'd take it to my dad's shop and have him look at it, but he just threw out his back.

$40 bucks will get you a plug and then some at a Costco or somewhere. I have a nail inmy front right tire now that needs a plug. Same thing it will stop at about 15 psi. You run the risk of the tire shreading at higher speeds if you have a nail in it, so be careful

33OH · 01-09-2009, 04:42 PM

Yeah, maybe I should just stop being lazy and go put some soap on it to see where the leak is.

I've got a little shop up the road from my house that plugs tires for 5 bucks.

33OH · 01-09-2009, 04:51 PM

Well my dad has the patches or whatever to do it. I just don't know how and he can hardly walk right now.

Just temporary though.

33OH · 01-09-2009, 04:53 PM

Well i'm out. You kids have a good weekend. =)

ChinoCharles · 01-09-2009, 04:54 PM

I'm just sitting here waiting for my buddy to get out of work so I can go to a sports bar and yell at the TV all night. You know, the usual.

LtNoogie · 01-09-2009, 05:03 PM

Just relaxing on my day off.

KCALB SIRAY · 01-09-2009, 05:03 PM

hey Noogie, next time your in DC let me know

LtNoogie · 01-09-2009, 05:12 PM

Flying in on Tuesday, meeting on Wednesday and then flying back out Wednesday night.

We actually meet south of D.C. in Stafford, VA. Where are you at?

I'll be doing the same thing the week after too. This part of business travel gets old fast.
