East Tenn Run Flat sales and or service
Hi all
I was out for a joy ride yesterday near Fontana Dam and my RR tire went flat, had to ride it all the way home, 85 miles. I tried to put some air in it but its a fast leak, looks like a screw in the middle of the tread. There is not that much tread left so a new tire may be needed. I live in Tellico Plains and need to find a tire shop that can 1: repair 2; sell and install a new tire or 3: buy one from Tire Rack and find someone local to install it. Needless to say there isn't much around here, 30 miles to food shop oneway, Any ideas......

Holy sheet look what I pulled out of my tire...
It was buried all the way into the tread and made 2 holes about 3/8"
wide each. I measured about 1/32" usable tread left
