Tire repair
I think that I have a slow slow leak in my rear passenger tire. Does anyone have any recommendations on where I can take my tire to get it repaired here in the Sacramento area? and does anyone have any idea of what the range of cost would be???

Yep. I love Americas Tire for that. I've had tons of tires fixed there for no charge. The first set I had fixed there I didn't buy there. Every set of tires since has been purchased there. They also have a kick *** road hazard program for the tires so if you flatten it and it is not fixable they replace it no charge. Done that too.

well, I looked up the website and it says if they are not tires that you bought from them, then I will be charged normally... anywho, does anyone have an estimation of what it might cost to repair a single tire (if it is repairable). I'd kinda like to have an idea before I call...
