Take it back to where you had it fitted and ask them, you can't take chances with tyres.

You need a company that does Hot Vulcanising on tyres, places such as KwikFit will probably only want to sell you a new tyre.

Anything on the edge of the tread or on the sidewall cannot normally be repaired.

Unfortunately, the flexing of the sidewall as the tyre rotates makes any kind of patching impossible.

The only chance you may have would be if there was an unconditional guarantee on the tyre, offered by the seller.

You mean new tires dont come with any warranty in the UK ?

I bought four new Michelin tires two weeks ago, warrantied for 80,000 miles and also against any road hazards or defects. Free repairs go with them also.

Even if some yob had stabbed one of the tires with a knife they would still replace it no charge.
