Default They said I had a better chance of hitting the lottery.

I had a nail in my tire a few weeks ago and went and got it patched...yesterday my tpms went off again. I checked tire pressure and it was the same tire that was low so I thought either it was another nail or they screwed up patching it.

I took it into the same tire shop and instead found this:



They said since it went through the same patch and they couldn't re-patch. Kept telling me I had a better chance hitting the lottery (even though I don't think they actually did any mathematical equations to come to this conclusion). They quoted me $255 for another OEM tire. I just told them to throw the spare on.

If I'm going to be purchasing a rear tire for that kinda money when the rest already have 7k miles on them I'm thinking of just replacing both rears with wider tires.

Any suggestions with the same wall height for the Enkei 18"s?
