Default Lucky?

Today I found a piece of wire pinched into my rear tire, so I went to a tire shop and asked them if they could repair it. The guy looked at it and told me that it could not be fixed because it was on the sidewall. God damn it I just replaced my tires a month ago... Now I gotta pay another 350 for another one.... This one is like brand new and it's garbage now... Sigh...

He's right. You can't fix a sidewall puncture and keep the tire safe. Tough break, but "shit happens".

I dont' know about Canada but here in US they usually offer you a warranty against those type of things. Check with the shop you got your tires from see if it was included.

Good idea. You may have some sort of "road hazzard" warranty with your new tire purchase.
