I had a nail in my tire last week and took the car to NTB (Tire Kingdom) since the air was not leaking. NTB said they would not fix the tire since the nail was within an inch or two of the edge. NTB recommended that the tire be replaced. I left without doing anything and took it to Pep Boys. They put the car on a lift, removed the nail and then checked the hole for leaks. NOTHING! The nail didn't go through even to the threads. I didn't want to pull the nail out at home and then be stuck using my spare. Lazy on my part, but at least I got a second opinion and no charge.
