At least you didn't find the nail patch with the 250-300lb drive tire like I did. no fun pulling the tire twice in 3 days.

OUCH!!!!
2 years ago give or take a little I was doing a yard clean up & tree trim. Trees were some kind of South American mesquite, thorns 3 to 4" long, harder & stiffer than Chines nails.

Used a small drift & hammer to drive it into tire, hammered in reamer and same with plug. Still holding air.

Both truck & tractor tire were still at 40 psi yesterday. Hope still there today.

My rears have tubes in them so plugs don't work. I'm just hoping my steers hold on a while longer. They're f-2 industrial tubeless at over $250 each and heavily rotted.
