nail in tyre tread needing a puncture repair

Puncture Repair Gold Coast

Top quality puncture repair Gold Coast at Bud’s Tyres. If you’ve got a puncture we will get you back on the road in no time. A punctured tyre or nail in your tyre can be a cheap and easy fix. Most punctures are permanently repairable. Therefore, you don’t have to splash out any extra cash on a whole new tyre. We are here to get you safely back on the road as quickly as possible. A puncture repair at Bud’s Tyres takes between 30 to 45 minutes to execute, priced from just $30. Considerably cheaper than a brand new tyre. At Bud’s Tyres we adhere to the Australian Standard for puncture repairs. We will only repair the tyre upon complete inspection using quality repair materials and as long as the puncture is within the repairable section of the tread. Locating the Puncture As soon as you spot a nail in your tyre or foreign debris contact us ASAP. A deflated tyre may also be a sign that you have a punctured tyre. Prevent driving on your tyre as driving even the shortest distance can damage the carcass of the tyre and cause irreparable damage. We would recommend putting on your spare tyre to travel to our store for repair. Unfortunately if the puncture is on the outer edges of your tyre or tyre sidewall you will have to look into getting a replacement. Tyre Repair Process A puncture repair carried out by our expert tyre technicians will involve firstly removing the tyre from the rim. Secondly, inspecting the tyre inside and out. Thirdly, assessing and repairing the puncture and balancing the tyre on the wheel. Finally, fitting the tyre back on the rim. Safety is the primary consideration when repairing a tyre. At Bud’s Tyres we will inspect the entire tread for secondary structural damage and damage potentially caused by low pressure driving. Our puncture repair process not only seals the tyre to ensure it will hold air but also seal the tyre to prevent moisture and contaminants from entering.

Off-Road Beadlock Wheels Gold Coast

Looking for off-road beadlock wheels Gold Coast? Bud’s Tyres Burleigh Heads have you more than covered. Are you struggling to find a tyre shop comfortable enough to fit beadlocks on your 4WD? This is due to inability and inexperience. Beadlocks require a specialist tyre technician as they require a unique and demanding fitment process. At Bud’s Tyres we specialise in all things 4WD, including beadlocks. Our talented tyre technicians have been trained in beadlock fitment. We fit beadlock wheels at Bud’s Tyres Burleigh Heads exclusively for off-road use with access to all the big name brands and styles in beadlock wheels. Unique tyre and wheel combinations have been tried and tested from the very beginning at Bud’s. We know all there is to know about 4WD wheels. Before you proceed with booking feel free to contact one of our friendly tyre technicians to confirm your tyre, vehicle and beadlock wheel combination. Please note that you will need to put aside extra time for fitment as they take longer than a standard wheel. What is the purpose of beadlock wheels? Beadlock wheels are engineered specifically for serious off-road conditions and to get you out of some delicate situations. While a standard wheel is dependent on tyre pressure to maintain a tight seal between the rim and tyre, a beadlock is physically dependent on a ring claiming force to secure the rim to the tyre. The beadlock ring mechanically clamps and seals the tyres outer bead to the wheel. Low tyre inflation pressure to improve traction, enlarge the contact path and reducing ride harshness is a non-negotiable in the off-road motorsports world. Beadlocks are over-engineered to be stronger and enforce a seal between the tyre and wheel independent of tyre inflation. This ultimately prevents the separation of the rim and tyre once tyre pressure has been reduced. Bigger turbos and lockers are just the beginning however its the rubber attached to your 4WD that does all the hard work in precarious terrain to ensure you keep moving forward. Wheels can play just a big a part in off-road performance. Even at 0 PSI, the tyre will not come off. Beadlock Performance Features Drive with confidence at a lower PSI in both high and low speed driving conditions. Play with lower pressures than you could with a conventional wheel… stress free. They look insanely good. Sharp steering may result in a conventional wheel peeling away from the tyre bead. A beadlock wheel has you covered. A non-beadlock wheel may result in the tyre coming off the wheel in tricky off-road conditions. A beadlock wheel physically cannot separate from the wheel. Shop Beadlocks The seasoned off-roader knows the benefits of investing in a good beadlock wheel. Seeking a unique wheel that is masculine, aggressive and tough to accentuate your tyres? Our range has you more than covered whether it’s a Mazda BT-50, Isuzu D-Max, Toyota Landcrusier, Toyota Hilux, Toyota Prado, Nissan Patrol, Ford Ranger orMitsubishi Triton.

uneven tread wear on tyre and cracking causing vibration

Can Tyres Cause Vibration?

Can tyres cause vibration? If you car is vibrating or shaking you can pretty much count on your tyres being the cause of the issue. The good news is uneven tyre wear is the commonly the reason as to why you car is vibrating. Replacing or rotating your tyres to stop the shaking is a much cheaper outcome than a trip to your mechanic. You better call the team at Bud’s for a free tyre safety check to check over your wheels and tyres to locate where the problem is coming from. Diagnose the Problem Uneven wear on your tyres can cause your wheels to become unbalanced. Unbalanced wheels will tend to shake your car. Uneven tread wear is not only a potential cause of a car vibrating. Tyre imbalance, improperly inflated tyres, deformed tyres, tread separation and bent rims can cause your car to rattle, drift and shake. Vibration feels as though the problem could a lot more sinister as it usually is. Luckily, the problem could be as simple as under-inflated tyres or your vehicle might just be due for an alignment. An easy fix. For off-road motorists the wheel itself can often be responsible for the shaking. Proper tyre servicing including wheel balancing, tyre rotation and alignment and booking your car in for its regular service will prevent problems such as vibrating and shaking from happening. Do not rule out engine or brake issues and a combination of engine, brake and tyre issues. Your tyre technician will be able to diagnose any further steps you may need to take to combat the issue. We recommend a service every 10,000km or 6 months. You should also rotate your tyres every 10,000km or 6 months. Tyres should be replaced every 3 – 5 years while you should bring your car in for a balance and/or alignment every 2 – 3 years. If the vibration is a mechanical issue check out Gold Coast Patrols and Mechanical, just down the road from Bud’s Tyres.

Tyre Tread

Best All Terrain Tyres

Bud’s Tyres have the best selection of all terrain tyres on the coast. A/T tyres are something a 4WD owner simply cannot go without. 4×4 all terrain tyres are designed for a distinct purpose and offer you the best of both worlds. On and off-road. In the off-road world you can go anywhere off-road with mud tyres. However, with all terrain tyres you can go anywhere without compromising on performance. A/T tyres are designed for 40% off-road use and 60% on-road. If you often find yourself driving through bush tracks, uneven trails, loose soil, mud and sand on your weekends A/T tyres might just be for you. All terrain tyres are ideal for a mixed lifestyle. You may be travelling to work in the city 5 days a week but spending every other waking minute off-road adventuring. A/T tyres are the most popular choice of tyre for 4WD enthusiasts. Alternatively, mud tyres may be a better option if your set out to master the roughest off-road conditions. If you occasionally go off-road but spend most of your time in the car on the road all terrain tyres are your match made in heaven. The design is varied from a highway terrain tyre in that it can go anywhere your 4×4 can go. This includes bitumen, sand, mud, rock and loose soil. The number one concern with an All Terrain tyre is compromising comfort and safety in your day-to-day life. Design It is fair enough that you would still want durability, comfort, minimal noise, a good looking tyre, superior braking, safety and longevity. With the right AT tyre you can have it all… with very little compromise. In order to deliver a high quality performance on an number of different surfaces, A/T tyres feature a deep and balanced tread pattern. In comparison to a HT tyre, they feature a stronger/reinforced sidewall and more open tread pattern and a harder rubber compound than an MT tyre. The Benefits Self-cleaning abilities Superior traction off-road and sidewall protection Better road noise in comparison to mud tyres Balance/compromise of off-road and on-road abilities Longevity and versatility All season The Disadvantages Poor performance in mud and snow On-road performance not as refined as highway terrain tyres Noisier than highway terrain tyres Mud Tyres If A/T tyres don’t quite sound like they would cut it, muddies may be the best tyre for you. Mud tyres are designed for performance with a softer rubber compound, wide gaps and large tread blocks to get you out of every sticky situation. The construction allows the tyre to be more puncture resistant and durable. Muddies are recognisable with their aggressive tread pattern and dominating features including more tread which often speak to their size. They are self-cleaning to provide maximum grip off-road. On the shoulder (between the tread and sidewall) of mud tyres are side bites to bite into the walls of ground ruts and terrain. When you are crawling up tricky terrain side bites help to achieve a forward motion.
