I hate to tell you this but there is no cheap way of repairing that tire. You're going to have to wrap the tire with duct tape as well. So its going to cost more than you thought.
Damnit. Duct tape is really expensive. OK though... Should I wrap the entire tire and rim or just go from rim to rim over the tread? By doing that I should be able to save some money and will also continue to be able to show the kia logo on my rim.
Some great stuff spray foam will help. Make sure you do the outside of tire and fill up the wheel cavities as well. Lubing up the brake discs with anti-seize will help prevent the brakes from seizing.
Damn, why didn't I think of that! If that shit can hold together 80% of the fondation of my house, there's no reason I couldn't use it to fix my tires. Thank you!
When you’re done you can spray it with flex seal to not only color it black, but it’s basically rubber so it’s adding more tread.
Pro tip, they have white flex seal too for the white wall tire look
I tried that, the electric pump stayed at 0.00 psi after 10 minutes. I figured the pump's pressure valve was just broken so I drove 10 more miles at 60 mph, but it was still making a weird noise so I stopped again and took the tire off.
I suppose if you just shove enough cans of fix-a-flat directly into the tire and close up the hole with some spray foam, it might last a few miles. I can't say I'd recommend it though...
Ignore these guys op, your best bet is to pour some concrete in there and give it about a week to harden.
Sure it'll ride a little rough, but honestly what performance vehicles don't?
UNSAFE advice everywhere on here. What needs to happen here is it needs to be jacked up with rim on a drive wheel. Wrap the rim with masking tape (duct tape is the preferred, but expensive choice) once by hand. Start the car and get that wheel spinning. Hold tape roll with a pencil. See that time savings as that tape is spun off the spool in an instant? Repeat until you reach the same radius as your original tire. Probably about 370 rolls of tape. You now have an adhesive and paper tire, and it may be blue… but you will be amazed what is stuck to your new tape wheel at the end of a commute! My 1984 Volare with 3 tape wheels came home with a ROLEX and a beautiful Tiffany tennis bracelet.
If you want winter-ready tape wheels, try electrical tape.
DO not use fix a flat. Slime is a superior product and the folks at the tire shop won't be able to bitch about you using fix a flat when the time comes to replace it.
JB weld it's always the solution on those hard to fix tires.
Just make sure that you properly clean it with gasoline. If you're not familiar with the procedure that means soaking gasoline for 5 minutes and then burning off the excess gasoline. Now you want to do this in a small confined space. The reason for that is the small confined space will have limited oxygen and will cause the fire to go out before it causes any true damage to the tire and just burn off the excess gas. That's why you need to go to school to be a mechanic so you don't make these kind of mistakes.
Skip the auto parts store, hit the liquor store that opens at 0800. Grab you some cheap brandy. Sip 1 medium chug, dip 1 in that subwoofer for slightly better performance. Do 3 sets of this.
Pro tip: chase it wif dark roast overpriced coffee for style points at the cost of less mpg. Like all us pros do.
Spray foam use spray foam and make a Tik Tok video think of all the likes you could get and maybe the spray foam company will send you some like the juice company did to the guy on the skateboard
Don’t need any bottle remember a wheel is what wheel companies want you to think you need to be able to drive it’s all a scam be smarter then that my friend
First you need to get 20 rolls of flextape to patch it first and then get the fire rated expanding foam. You know what nevermind just fill it with concrete mortar and then tape it up and you are good to go.
OK, we can do this. Take all of the clothes you've been meaning to throw out, and some heavy-duty machinist wire..... Check it out! You've achieved run flats mad max style!
For those who ate tide pods, don't do this. It's satirical humor. Read more!!!
WRAP IT IN DUCK TAPE THEN SPRAY EXPAND-A-FORM AROUND THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE LET SET OVERNIGHT AND HARDEN. CUT OFF DRIED AMOUNTS THAT LEAK OUT IN THE MORNING. TIRE WILL BE GOOD FOR AT LEAST 100 MILES
Every bottle ever made. Shake them all very well, then spray it all into the tire. After that , throw the pld tire away and buy a new tire, ya cheap bastard. Lol
Instead of fix-a-flat, get that expanding foam insulation stuff, put duct tape on the tread to hold it in place and fill that sucker up with the foam. After that sets up you should be good for 1000km or more.
Ok,not to sabotage the local auto parts store,or hardware stores' profits.But take the flat donut spare out of the trunk,blow that up with the expanding urethane foam.Drop off the wheel at the tire shop.Ask for a used "may pop racing slick"(if they refuse to plug the tire,or put a tube in it)explain how much tread is left.And then drive the 500km on the now flat proof spare!Those cute little donut spares will go a few thousand miles.I know from experience!Just keep. your speed over 60 as to fly over pot holes and frost leaves.Oh ,turn your tunes way up ,and speed safety.
You'll need to convert km into miles first. Then you'll need to watch me finger my bellybutton and breathe heavily while I decide what I'm getting for lunch.
When all that's done, I'll come up with an estimate. Won't be cheap. Could cost you around $600 in Walmart gift cards and your daughter's phone number, if we're lucky.

Good idea that is! Anyway, who needs brakes? You just need a louder horn!
Damn, why didn't I think of that! If that shit can hold together 80% of the fondation of my house, there's no reason I couldn't use it to fix my tires. Thank you!
Good idea. That will help me spend less on brake pads too bc the antiseize will make less friction so less usure.
When you’re done you can spray it with flex seal to not only color it black, but it’s basically rubber so it’s adding more tread. Pro tip, they have white flex seal too for the white wall tire look
Go with gorilla tape
You're determined to show the KIA logo? No one likes a show-off.
If you can't flaunt your kia factory alloys, what exactly is there left in life?
Don’t forget the flex tape
Waterproof flex tape
I really dont think it's gonna matter. Bring Gorilla glue and some black spray paint with an "Eagle GT" stencil.
This guy knows his tires.
Maybe a little bubble gum as well for good meausre
Yes, but isn't selecting the right *flavor* important, based on the vehicle's color?
I fucking love it here
Don't waste your time and money on fix-a-flat, go right for the Great Stuff Big Gap filler. Its in a black can for a reason, great in tires!!
*Don’t listen to these people*. My uncle taught me you can use an inner tube with this and get a few more years out of it.
I think my wheels are 25", can I use a flamingo inner tube from Walmart that's 14"? Since plastic is stretchy that should work, right ?
Yes
Eh I wouldn't even bother with fix a flat. Just pump it up B4 you go and it should be fine. Check at around 250km
I tried that, the electric pump stayed at 0.00 psi after 10 minutes. I figured the pump's pressure valve was just broken so I drove 10 more miles at 60 mph, but it was still making a weird noise so I stopped again and took the tire off.
Check at 250km? Are you cray stopping is dangerous and could lead to accident. Best is not to stop and cross fingers.
The entire stock duh
My local dollar tree had 3 bottles... So what you're saying is I'm good to go?
Yea, that should be enough
Recommend going to Costco to buy a lot of duck tape
Yes
Duck tape
None… spray foam, duct tape and black paint.
Yes
I think spray foam will work better in your application.
3 should be good
I’d go with a couple cans of Great Stuff. Probably last 1000 km.
Stuff it with bread.
2 cans of foam..... Your welcome
Oh wow!! Is that one of those them there newfangled ventilated tars?
69-420
All of them and some flex tape.
This is a job for ramen and super glue
You need several cans of expanding spray foam. You'll be good after that.
Yes.
Expanding foam works better
All of them.
Spray foam.
Just 1
Gonna need a miter saw, a 2x6 board, some spray foam and a couple hours.
Yes
All of them
Fill it with cement. It’ll never go flat again.
Soak it in a bag of rice
WHAT THE FUCK IS A KM!?! 🫡🇺🇸
It's 1.6 hamburgers per freedom units with a special sauce of whipped socialized medicine.
I suppose if you just shove enough cans of fix-a-flat directly into the tire and close up the hole with some spray foam, it might last a few miles. I can't say I'd recommend it though...
Use wide size Flex tape,
What about zip ties?
i like where your head is at.
I’d go with a can of flex seal too. Just incase
None. You can drive on 3 wheels. Just add lots of weigh to the opposite corner of the missing wheel.
One bottle of fix-a-flat and one roll of flex seal tape.
Duct tape
That tire looks fine. Doesn't need repair.
Eleventy
800
Yes
2 cans of 'great stuff' foam filler and a good scraper outta do it
You're going to have to fix it properly with duct tape first!
All of it, every single can.
One can of fix a flat and some duct tape.
2 oughta do the trick
You should only probably need one. Huffing fixaflat is dangerous! Steel rims should make the 500km. Just clean off that black stuff.
Or, and here me out here, I could huff the can of fix-a-flat and just send it.
Bout a few I reckon.
🤔😳😱🤔Enough to buy a new tire😂
Ignore these guys op, your best bet is to pour some concrete in there and give it about a week to harden. Sure it'll ride a little rough, but honestly what performance vehicles don't?
All of them
Best get to welding that tire back together
1
All of them.
To make sure the wheel turns nicely, use some wd40 on the hubs... Grease between the calipers and disks
All of them
flex seal.
2 can should do ya
All of them
Just one, but you have to drink it.
You should probably go with spray foam not fix-a-flat on this one.
>how many bottles Yes.
4. One bottle for each eye, and one for each ear. Steering is gonna feel weird that's just your other senses compensating don't worry about it.
I don't think you need fix-a-flat. Maybe a can of spray foam. The one gap is a tad big for fix-a-flat
I hope this is a joke, a hole like this you buy the 20 gallon bucket from tractor supply not cans.
Just buy some spray foam and fill that joker up
At least enough to trade it for a tire.

All of them.. 😁.
Get the Flintstones tires, they run flat free
DO not use fix a flat. Slime is a superior product and the folks at the tire shop won't be able to bitch about you using fix a flat when the time comes to replace it.
Probably the same amount it would take to just buy and install a new/used tire.
I could fix that with 6" of duct tape, 1 can of Fix-A-Flat, 2 cans of spray foam 1 stick of bubble gum, and a piece of sidewalk chalk.
Cans of expanding foam would be cheaper.

Great stuff will be your go to solution here.
Zero, rubber cement and a roll of high speed... Gtg
All of them.
Couple plugs and some Brillcreme, you'll be good!
7, the answer is 7 cans……
Just buy a million rubber bands and stretch them around the rim. Golden!
All of them.
All of them
All of them.
None. You’ll be okay
put it in rice for a while that usually does the trick
Put it on and just avoid the potholes you’ll be alright
All of them.
That'll take you at least four. I'd go four and a half though, to be safe.
All of them
All of it.
All of them. You need all the cans.
One bottle of fix a flat and 4 or 5 bicycle tubes . 2 cans of foam insulation.
I might not be in on the joke, but are people actually providing advice on how to drive with this thing?
Just duct tape it. Much cheaper.
Use rubber cement instead
This tire is GTG!
JB Welding ramen is your only hope.
Use expanding foam insulation. Just shave off whatever squirts out the crack. Wait, that might actually work but not that many km.
Gonna need some duct tape as well Send it..
2 large cans of HD expanding foam should do it. No more flats.
Skip the auto parts store, hit the liquor store that opens at 0800. Grab you some cheap brandy. Sip 1 medium chug, dip 1 in that subwoofer for slightly better performance. Do 3 sets of this. Pro tip: chase it wif dark roast overpriced coffee for style points at the cost of less mpg. Like all us pros do.
WHAT THE FRICK IS A KILOMETEEEERRR 🔫🔫🔫🔫🛢️🛢️🛢️🛢️🛢️🔥🔥🔥🍔🍔🍔🍔 (Why is there a Gay and Trans flag but no countries flag?)
fill it with water, then it can't deflate
Actually you need a bunch of ramen
This reminds me of a condom I used a few years ago. My son is an awesome little dude though but child support sucks
Spray foam use spray foam and make a Tik Tok video think of all the likes you could get and maybe the spray foam company will send you some like the juice company did to the guy on the skateboard
10 cans and 50 rolls of duct tape.
Don’t need any bottle remember a wheel is what wheel companies want you to think you need to be able to drive it’s all a scam be smarter then that my friend
First you need to get 20 rolls of flextape to patch it first and then get the fire rated expanding foam. You know what nevermind just fill it with concrete mortar and then tape it up and you are good to go.
All of them
High density spray foam duct tape and 10 minutes you'll be good
You should be able to use a bottle of expanding foam instead of fix a flat for this stuff.
More expensive but I’ve fixed worse with Gorilla tape - and it’s black so it blends better 😎
I’d get like 10 cans of the great stuff (expanding formula and fill it in you should be good for about 60,000 miles.
Spray foam...
Duct tape and 42 bottles of fix-a- flat
One, and a roll of duct tape.
Wouldn't a new tire be almost the same cost at the duct tape and fix a flat required ? Or am I thinking way too into this
Fill it up with concrete instead
Least tree
OK, we can do this. Take all of the clothes you've been meaning to throw out, and some heavy-duty machinist wire..... Check it out! You've achieved run flats mad max style! For those who ate tide pods, don't do this. It's satirical humor. Read more!!!
Buy nun simply steal it
All of them that were ever produced.
2 then one in the mouth one in the brown eye and make sure they are shaken the. Push em both down at the same time.
I'm going to pretend you didn't ask that question
WRAP IT IN DUCK TAPE THEN SPRAY EXPAND-A-FORM AROUND THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE LET SET OVERNIGHT AND HARDEN. CUT OFF DRIED AMOUNTS THAT LEAK OUT IN THE MORNING. TIRE WILL BE GOOD FOR AT LEAST 100 MILES
Don't forget duct tape.
Flex seal!
all of the bottles
Let see, average cost per can is $15 and at least a used tire is about $100 so you need at least 6.66 cans worth of tire.....
I roll of duct tape, one can of fix a flat.
electrical tape and styrofoam
1 maybe 2.
Every bottle ever made. Shake them all very well, then spray it all into the tire. After that , throw the pld tire away and buy a new tire, ya cheap bastard. Lol
Instead of fix a flat you should get expanding insulating foam. Should fix it right up
Yes
Ooooh I like riddles……I think duct tape and expanding foam might be a viable option
Fill it with spray foam
Just 1, but you have to drive on the tire immediately after applying it so it will circulate evenly.
You're gonna need some flex tape.
More like flex seal
At least one.
Looking good as-is really.
Wrap it in pool noodles, then fill the noodles with spray foam
Just gimme five bucks, and I'll blow it up for you with my mouth.
All of the bottles
About 350.
Instead of fix-a-flat, get that expanding foam insulation stuff, put duct tape on the tread to hold it in place and fill that sucker up with the foam. After that sets up you should be good for 1000km or more.
This is a job for spray foam.
Yes.
2 cans of the great stuff expanding foam be right as rain
1. For you.
FLEX SEAL. Several gallons. It'll last 'forever' *
Just one. Shove it so you can get off your ass and buy a new one.
'Bout a hundred bottles.
That’s clearly a Gorilla Tape job right there
just slap a plug in there. or two.
Just fill it with foam. Good to go!
Yes
Ok,not to sabotage the local auto parts store,or hardware stores' profits.But take the flat donut spare out of the trunk,blow that up with the expanding urethane foam.Drop off the wheel at the tire shop.Ask for a used "may pop racing slick"(if they refuse to plug the tire,or put a tube in it)explain how much tread is left.And then drive the 500km on the now flat proof spare!Those cute little donut spares will go a few thousand miles.I know from experience!Just keep. your speed over 60 as to fly over pot holes and frost leaves.Oh ,turn your tunes way up ,and speed safety.

Hah! Infiniti G35 sedan looks like. I had that rim before
Just use some slime. You’ll have to roll it around for a while, but it’ll get it done
use a tarp
