my rear tire got punctured. i already put in the spare tire and all but i need to find a place to buy new tires like straight away cos if my parents find out i'm gonna die..
its a mazda 2 2007 model the tires are TOYO Tranpath 185/55R15 81V
so my question basically is.. are there any tire shops open on sundays??
preferably in the hornsby sydney area..
another question is. i put in the spare tire and it instructed me to inflate it to 60PSI.. just wondering how long that will last me traveling wise.
thanks in advance sorry for any mistakes i'll fix it up later.

any big tyre chains near by?
bob janes, beaurepaires, tyre power, etc.
they could possibly be open but i highly doubt it

your temp tyre shouldnt exceed the speeds of over 80km/h. It'll last a while as long as you follow the steps to what the temporary tyre can exceed.

why not just buy a puncture repair kit from supercheap auto?

why would you mom kill you? No is your answer, even mechanics don't work on Sundays except maybe small independent stores; best bet is Monday bring $20-$50 kmart auto in out less than 10 minutes

depending where the puncture is you can get it fixed instead of forking out for a new tyre!

i was going to say didn't your parents know you took the car
but a puncture on the side makes more sense, what did you hit?

Why would they kill you unless you hit something? hehe
If it's on the side you'll need a new one :(
