Default crap! I got a puncture in two of my track set of tires.
I was hoping to get the audi in a few more events with these tires but since it's not very smart to run patched tires at the track, looks like I'm going back to my street set which I will have to baby since I don't want to have to buy a new set before trading-in this summer.

It's a long shot but anyone selling a worn set of 19" tires? 255/35 265/30 or something like that.

2nd. If done properly and not near sidewall I wouldn't worry about it.
