This standard also defines the validity of a tyre repair regarding location. To remain compliant with BSAU159 we are only able to carry out tyre repairs to the central 3/4 of the tyre – this is known as the minor repair area.
Puncture Location And Repair
AMS Tyres will inspect for any cuts, breaks and abrasions to the tyre casing which if repaired to a lesser standard could prove fatal in the event of a tyre failing at high speeds. Inspection is a vital part of the service as if we have any doubts about whether or a not a tyre should be repaired, we will advise accordingly.
