sprayed it with water, i hear hissing sounds. happened last night. pic taken the next day. car is a toyota 2017 vios. it did not fully deflate so it is a slow leak. how do you fix this? if taken to a auto shop, what will they do? patch it? what are the methods of repair will they do? i saw some tube strips being used on punctured tyres and some patches..and what are the costs? does a punctured-repaired tyre reduce its full inflation capacity/limit? will it reduce its performance? i still have a spare tire which has not been used. do i use this punctured tyre as a spare when fixed?

depende sa tire damage pero kadalasan tire patch lang ok na problem solve.. about inflation capacity  it will not reduce its inflation limit since most car tires operates on low pressure naman about 32-40 psi lang..

mas malakas pa yung tire pressure ng roadbike tires from 120 - 160 psi that's the problem if you have a puncture kahit na mag patch ka pa it cannot hold the original maximum tire pressure anymore.
