After about 200 miles I walk out to my car this morning and see this . . .

This f*cker is huge, is it even repairable?

I called tire rack and they let me buy a new one for half off, so I did.

How much would this cost to get plugged?

It may be too close to the sidewall, usually you cant plug/patch 'em when they're that close. I mean, you can of course, but they won't hold like they would if it were near the center of the tread. You can plug it urself, go get a kit @ wal-mart for $5, try it and see if it will hold air.

Buy a plugging kit and do it yourself. But keep in mind when driving hard you have a plug in the specific tire...

Go get it done professionally from the inside. Cost me about $25 for them to fix mine.

I got a huge screw in my neova and les schwab repaired it for free because i needed new tires soon and they took the chance to plug their toyos. Needless to say I didn't buy their tires. I think it was like $11.25 or something....just do that
