Patch or Replace?

Tell him you have a tire warranty and that the replacement will be free.

You will see how quickly the location of the nail is no longer an issue.

This is a longshot, but does anyone have any recommendations for a tire repair shop in the King of Prussia/Wayne, PA area or Lansdale, PA area? I am looking for a place that can do it without scratching or gouging the wheel, which seems to be a rarity.

Try Yelp. That way, if you were to head to an unknown shop at least you'd have some reviews/opinions to go off of.

It turns out that it can't be patched. I ended up ordering the tire through the Nissan dealership who is matching the Tire Rack's price shipped and should do a good job mounting and balancing it. It sucks, but at least I won't have to worry about it.

Shouldve went to Costco and ordered it..... Costco Road Hazard Warranty for the win.

Costco was significantly more $ and didn't seem very confident about mounting the tire w/o messing up the wheel.
