Ride-On dosages are calculated to maximize sealing efficacy in the crown area of tires. The tread area outside the crown is a flex point and is outside the belt package. Tire manufacturers do not recommend using conventional repairs for punctures in these areas. Similarly, Ride-On is not designed to seal punctures outside the crown area. Only reinforced section repairs should be used to fix any injury outside the tire crown, if repair is possible at all.

If you notice a tire injury outside the coverage area, we strongly recommend removing the tire from service immediately for inspection by a certified tire professional. Only a certified professional can determine if a conventional plug and patch repair or a section repair is necessary or possible.
