    Yeah it takes buying two new sets before you can cap your own. My local tire guy comes to me.

    Also hExit 48 on I-81 in NY there is a tire shop that retreads on site......Long Park Tire. I think they will do them while you wait. Not sure about X-ray though

    Only place I use retread is on my lift axle. Even that makes me cringe. If they come apart, it’s gonna take out my battery box on one side or my nice tool box on the other side.
