Get Your BMW Alpina B8 Gran Coupe Tire Repaired
City populations are exploding. Roads are expanding. There's construction around every corner! Unfortunately, this can mean a higher chance of a flat or damaged tire caused by debris in the road. If the road has been rough on your 2022 BMW Alpina B8 Gran Coupe tires, Firestone Complete Auto Care can help. In some cases, a tire doesn’t have to be replaced – it can be plugged and patched with a simple repair. Depending on the damage, though, a repair might not be the right move. Our technicians can determine which option is best for your situation. We’ll begin by taking a look at where the damage is, the type and extent of the tire damage, and how all of your tires are wearing.
If your 2022 BMW Alpina B8 Gran Coupe tire puncture can be repaired, we'll follow three basic steps to repair it: (1) Take the tire off the wheel for easy inspection, (2) use a filler to close up the puncture (this is to keep moisture from getting in), and (3) secure and seal the inner tire liner to ensure the tire is airtight.
Tire Replacement for Your BMW Alpina B8 Gran Coupe
Not all 2022 BMW Alpina B8 Gran Coupe tire damage can be repaired. Tires with less than 2/32nd inch tread remaining can't be repaired, no matter how minor the damage. At this tread depth, the tire is worn out and must be replaced. If your tire is not yet worn down, there are other forms of damage that simply can’t be repaired, like a tire with a puncture larger than ¼ inch in diameter; a tire with a puncture or damage outside the tread area; a tire with multiple punctures that are less than 16 inches apart; and major cuts or separated treads.
Sometimes, it's in your best interest to buy one, two, or four new tires depending on BMW's recommendation. Manufacturers of AWD vehicles, for example, often recommend replacing all four tires at once because AWD systems need uniform tires to operate properly. But, if you’ve recently replaced your tires and they don’t have significant wear, a new set might not be needed. You might be able to replace one tire as long as it's the same brand, type, and size as the other three. Need help? A tire technician can walk you through the options and help you determine what’s best for your vehicle’s performance and longevity.
Do I Need a Tire Inspection for My BMW Alpina B8 Gran Coupe?
A flat tire? That’s pretty hard to ignore. But other tire damage? It’s not always obvious! Tire damage can also show itself through subtle symptoms, like dents in your wheel rims, excessive noise coming from the exhaust system, bumps or bulges in tire sidewalls, or even leaks underneath the car. Stay ahead of potentially dangerous tire issues. Bring your 2022 BMW Alpina B8 Gran Coupe in for a tire inspection.
Frequently Asked BMW Alpina B8 Gran Coupe Tire Repair Questions
-
How soon should I have my flat tire repaired? Driving on a flat or underinflated tire can put extra stress on your wheels and alignment. While it’s sometimes necessary to drive a short distance on a flat tire to get to a safe place, don’t take any other trips in your Alpina B8 Gran Coupe until you can have the flat tire repaired or replaced.
-
Will a temporary sealant fix my BMW's flat tire? A temporary sealant may be able to help you get to a repair location safely. But temporary or emergency sealants could possibly damage TPMS sensors, and in some cases may even void the warranty on your Bridgestone or Firestone tires. If your tire needs extensive repair, sealant can add time and labor costs to the process.
-
How long can I drive my BMW on a spare tire? While this sounds great in theory, keep in mind that most spare tires are not designed for distance or speed. The compact spare tire that most likely sits inside your 2022 BMW Alpina B8 Gran Coupe is intended for only a few days of use, so don’t use it as a substitute for getting your tire repaired.
-
Who offers BMW Alpina B8 Gran Coupe tire repair? In most cases, your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care can handle your BMW Alpina B8 Gran Coupe tire repair. Ultimately, the severity of the damage will determine if your tires can be repaired.
-
What is causing the tires on my Alpina B8 Gran Coupe to keep losing air? Tire punctures, damaged wheels, and leaking valve stems are possible reasons for your Alpina B8 Gran Coupe tires continuously losing air.
-
Is it necessary to replace all four BMW Alpina B8 Gran Coupe tires at once? It's important to consider replacing your Alpina B8 Gran Coupe tires in pairs or all four at once for safety and performance reasons, even if only two of them appear to be worn. If the remaining two tires are significantly newer, they may have different grip than the older tires, which can affect your vehicle’s handling. Always double-check your owner's manual since some vehicles require all four tires to be replaced if there's a tread difference of more than 3/32”.
