Why You Need a Tyre Repair Kit for Safe Off-roading

If you are an offroad enthusiast, you probably already have a tyre repair kit. If you are a beginner looking to explore dirt roads and two-tracks or heading out into the uncharted bush, then a tyre or wheel repair kit should be at the top of your shopping list. While other 4x4 accessories might be more 'fun' to shop for-from suspension modifications to rocker switches-it's nevertheless important to think about how you are going to get yourself out of trouble if you encounter a flat tyre out in the wilderness.

The Importance of a Tyre Repair Kit

Why is it so vital that you be able to repair a damaged tyre out in the bush? Here are a few reasons why having a repair kit in your trunk is essential:

• The usual options aren't there. When you get a flat tyre on the way to work, you can call a tow truck, a roadside assistance company or even a friend to help you. Even if all these options fail, there's still hope that someone could drive by, see your situation, and lend a hand. Roadside assistance isn't an option if there's no road to speak of, which means that, when you have a tyre problem offroad, you're probably on your own. A puncture kit can save your bacon in this scenario.
• It's affordable. A tyre puncture repair kit is not a huge investment. The one we carry is just $40. That's a small price to pay for the peace of mind you'll get just from knowing you can get yourself out of a rough patch.
• You're riding on rough terrain. The likelihood of puncturing or damaging your tyre is markedly higher when you venture off the road and into the rugged, unpredictable terrain of the Australian bush. If you're going to go off roading, you need to be ready for the extra wear and tear that your tyres will collect along the way.
