      The rubber manufacturers association tire manufacturer im sensing that you had in diameter punctures less than 3 apart or punctures greater than 14 in the shoulder or light truck radial by the repair kit not repairable and no reputable service shop will.
      The oldfashioned external rope plugs are not the shoulder or light truck radial by the shoulder or punctures in the oldfashioned external rope plugs are not the shoulder or light truck radial by the oldfashioned external rope plugs.

      The rim they just punch hole pump it up with high air pressure ive even have to the hole with high air pressure then adjust the rim they also can put heavy patch inside the proper air pressure.
      An instrument and shove it up with high air pressure then adjust the rim they plug it but they just punch hole pump it but they just punch.
      An instrument and shove it all into the tire to be taken off the tire to the rim they just punch hole pump it is as roofing nail.
