    It’s just a nail, currently holding air, have a new one from tirerack on the way. It’s extremely close to the sidewall.

    I’m wondering if I can keep the tire though.

    tread depth 12/32” all the way through

    Most big tire shops won’t touch that, too close to the sidewall for a reliable repair. A small shop might

    What they said, you can probably make it a good spare at a minimum.

    It’s in the tread, I’d plug and chug.

    I was hoping for that, or to sell to someone for cheap as fuck and be transparent with the tire history. Tire has about 4500 miles on it and it was made dec 2021 so it’s a very new tire still. But at the same time don’t want to use/sell something that can potentially fail disastrously
