My sons car recently picked up a small/finishing nail and of course Walmart wouldn't patch it as I was right in the meat of the tread which was the last tread on the outside of the tire, dead center, not the outer part.
The tires are Dunlop signature ll, 2 yrs old with about 25k and show 70% tread depth. I plugged the tire myself a week ago and it's been fine holding air and all seems well. I'm 46 and have been plugging tires for 30yrs and never an issue. Should I just replace the set of tires with a set of yokohamas for around $325 or am I wasting my money? I hate getting rid of darn nice tread but the Walmart guy basically said the tire was shot which I know they've gotta do for leagal purposes. I thought about just buying 2 new Dunlop's but they're going to cost as much as a new set.
