Repairing Your Hyundai Tiburon Tire
Cities are growing. Roads are expanding. There's construction around every corner! That means more tire-damaging road debris and flat tires. If your 2005 Hyundai Tiburon is in need of a tire inspection or possible flat tire repair, Firestone Complete Auto Care has your back. 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 a repair on your 2005 Hyundai Tiburon tire is feasible and safe, we’ll get to work on the steps to fix it: (1) Separate the tire from the vehicle wheel, (2) fill the puncture to keep the moisture out, and (3) secure and seal the inner tire liner to ensure the tire is airtight.
Hyundai Tiburon Tire Replacement
Not all 2005 Hyundai Tiburon tire damage can be repaired. For tires that have less than 2/32nd inch of tread left, a repair simply isn’t possible – even if the tire damage is minimal. This tread depth indicates that the tire is worn out, and needs to 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; multiple punctures that are too close together (less than 16 inches between them); and a tire with cuts or tread separation.
Depending on what Hyundai recommends for your car, you’ll want to consider purchasing one new tire, two new tires, or a new full set. Manufacturers of AWD vehicles, for example, often recommend replacing all four tires at once because AWD systems need uniform tires to operate properly. However, this may not be necessary if your remaining three tires are new. It’s possible that you will only need to replace the tire that’s damaged – just make sure it’s the same size, type, and brand as the rest of your tires. Still not sure how many tires to replace or what kind to buy? A trained tire technician at Firestone Complete Auto Care is ready and waiting to answer your questions.
Hyundai Tiburon Tire Inspection
A flat tire? That’s pretty hard to ignore. But other tire damage? It’s not always obvious! Bent tire rims, bulging tire sidewalls, leaks under your car, or noise from your exhaust system can all point to tire-related damage that should be addressed quickly. Stop tire damage in its tracks. Start with a tire inspection on your 2005 Hyundai Tiburon.
Hyundai Tiburon Tire Repair Questions
-
How soon should I have my flat tire repaired? Driving on a flat tire is not a good idea. Your Tiburon engine will keep running with a flat tire, but you could damage your wheel by continuing to drive on a flat.
-
Is temporary sealant bad for my Hyundai's tires? Temporary sealants will solve your problem… for a little bit. If you’ve seen temporary or emergency tire sealant before (it usually comes in a can), it can be tempting to turn to this as a solution for your flat tire. Keep in mind that these fixes could buy you some time to get to Firestone Complete Auto Care for a proper repair, but they could also cause some harm in the process (for example, damage to your TPMS). Plus, using a product like this could void your tire warranty.
-
How long can I drive my Hyundai 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 2005 Hyundai Tiburon is intended for only a few days of use, so don’t use it as a substitute for getting your tire repaired.
-
Where can I get my Hyundai Tiburon tires repaired? Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care is equipped to handle most Hyundai Tiburon tire repairs, but it depends on how severe the damage is.
-
Why do my Tiburon tires keep losing air? If your Tiburon tires are always losing air, you may have a puncture, damaged wheel, or leaking valve stem.
-
Do all four tires on a Hyundai Tiburon have to be replaced at the same time? While it may not always be necessary to replace all four tires on your Tiburon, it’s advised you replace them in pairs or all at once to ensure optimal safety and performance. Having two new tires and two worn tires can put you at risk since the worn tires might not have as good of traction as the new ones. Reference your owner’s manual to see if you will need to replace all four tires due to a large difference in tread.
