I went to AG&R today, and they said corporate wouldn't let them plug a tire. They couldn't patch it because the nail was too close to the sidewall and they were afraid that patch wouldn't seal.

I just need a plug or plug and patch to last me for a week before I can replace the entire tire for a brand new one.

Does anyone know of a smaller shop that will plug or plug and patch a tire that has a nail in the tread but close to the sidewall?

 

I need to drive 800 miles / 1300 km if possible.
