If it's a rip or puncture in the side wall its generally not safe to repair. If there is a nail in the thread, then take it to a garage for a plug. Shouldn't cost more than 10 bucks. The front tires of my F150 have had several plugs inserted (home reno here last year and I'm still finding nails the hard way)

So flat it looked like the truck was tipping. So I doubt I could call and argue that something happened there and it didnt happen on the way home from the shop. I called and a new tire is about 167 at wallyworld.. it's a bridgestone but my other tires are michelin. I wont have a problem with that but there's also the option of tire repair (if it's repairable).. So my question to you all is how reliable are the tire repair kits? I've got a F-150 1/2 ton.. if it matters..
