The Puncture Location Is Important

Punctures can generally be repaired if they occur on the central portion of the tyre, in this case the middle three-quarters of the tyre. If a puncture occurs outside this area, near to the tyre's sidewall, it cannot generally be repaired. This is because the sidewall carries the largest load when you drive, and the repair process typically used to fix punctures can weaken the sidewall's structure. The sidewall also need to be able to flex adequately, and any patches applied in this area would be far more likely to come away from the tyre.
