Hey, all.
Picked up a ’92 4-WD Ranger Custom a few months back. So many problems with it. The one thing I thought I’d be good with were the tires. I can tell they’re not new chronologically, but there’s very little wear on the nice aggressive treads.
Then I saw THIS:

Uggh. I definitely can’t afford new tires for this thing right now, since it needs so many other things done to it (yes, I know, an accident would cost more and I DO want to be responsible toward other people on the road). The tires hold air perfectly fine, so the tear obviously hasn’t gone through. If I put a tube in that one tire for the time being, would it be likely to pass inspection that way (it’s due in October)?
Thanks.
