Does this ruin the tires or can they be repaired? I guessing not easy to repair if its the outside sidewall area of the tire. I have been told at tire shops that they only patch tire punctures if they are in the tread area, never the sidewalls because it won’t hold. Those truck tires on big rigs are like $1200 dollars apiece!!!

If the sidewall on any tire gets punctured the tire is irreparable. I learned that the hard way long ago when I was a young punk street rodder
