Car Tire Repair?

Recommended Posts

Just seeing if anyone can confirm or deny - the Tire Repair Kit doesn’t work in the xbox version as of now?

I found a car, it’s almost complete, just need a spark plug and two more tires. One of the tires already on it is ‘badly damaged’ and I tried everything to get the TRK to work, but it wouldn’t no matter what I tried. I even went as far as looking at the description of the kit: “A plastic case, containing all the tools needed for fixing a car tire. Tire iron not included.”

So I went on a damn hunt for a tire iron, brought it back, thinking maybe I had to combine the tire iron and the kit or something. Nope. Any info?

Lmao I actually did try to use it as a last ditch effort thinking the same thing! I was like, well hell it repairs clothes, backpacks, guns, magazines, why the fuck not a tire too?!

Sadly it doesn’t work either :c

as far as i remember:

the usual procedure for repairing tires (on PC is/was).

use the tire iron (in hands) with the wheel (aim at it) on the car in order to detach it.

take the repair kit in the hands, and aim at the wheel (on the ground) and interact to fix it.

take the wheel into the hands and look at the place you want it, and attach it. you don't need a tire iron for this (you probably just tighten the screws/nuts by hand)
