I work at the delership so i deal with the nail in the tire alot (free servive for the custumers) plug is alot easear and it will hold air just fine if you go thru tires alot (camber) and plug you can use it alot closer to the side wall. The patch will only work on the flat serfice and will have less chance of leaking air if you do it right. Persionally i use patches on all my tire. I dont like flats :shrug:

Always used plugs and never once an issue. I keep a plug kit in every car I own.

Exactly.....back in the day when i slung tires at sears that's what we used.

P.S. have them add some bead sealer on top of the patch and your golden:biggthumpup:

that plug n patch kit looks interesting but every single time ive used a plug kit and it works wonders. i used to keep them in my trunk at all times like mike does til i left my car in the sun all day waiting for my tint to dry out and it melted in the compartment i had it in. could have been a cheap brand. i noticed some plugs are like 2 bucks for a kit of 4 or 5 and some brands are like 10-20 bucks.
