i only buy [lightly] used tires but stay away from anything that has been repaired. used tires are much cheaper than new and i go to the track regularly so i'm just ripping them up anyway. starting to see some info suggesting that properly repaired tires can still be safe as long as the damage was not in the sidewall. my top speed on the track is about 115mph and only at the end of the longest straights. seems like tires with a high speed rating and a proper patch or plug could still be safe. any opinions?
