Short question, last month and picked up a small nail in my rear pickup truck tire in the first tread groove. These are near new highway tires, dated mid 2020, probably less than 5k miles, no warranty on them, but years and tens of thousands of service miles remaining. Anyway, Discount Tire (awesome!) did a free patch.
I moved, hauled several truck loads. I noticed the tire is slowly leaking air and have twice had to air it up. Today it only had 10 psi, and upon investigation, the plug is pushing its way out about 1/8." I'm really hoping this tire (and probably set) won't need replacing because they are practically new. Would be a complete waste to dispose of.
Going to ask tomorrow, but I fear the answer is it cannot be re-patched.
