2013 427 vert tire help 335/25 zr 20
Hello, I am in need of some help from the forum. I have 2013 427 vert with OEM 335/25 ZR 20 Rear tire with nail near side wall. Car has 7000 miles and I can't seem to find same tire or I'm looking wrong places. Will I need to replace both rear tires to keep them matched if I can't find one, I'm just not sure what I should do. Sorry for huge photos

It's not that close to the sidewall. You sure it can't be patched? I would definitely replace both tires at the same time, especially the rears. Good luck!

Just experienced this today on my daily driver Maxima. I'm going to see of I can get it patched just put the tires on less than 1k miles ago. I agree with the previous post if you have to replace that tire I would replace both. Have you tried TireRack or Discount Tire?

I belive if it can’t repair I may just replace all with all season Michelin as they are 7 years old.
Thanks again

Tire Rack sells them for future reference.

Glad you could get it patched. At 7 years old they are nearing their end of life. High performance rubber doesn't age well. Only 1000 miles per year, you need to drive it more!
