Death_Equity,

Rope plugs to get you to a shop.

Unless you have the stuff to pull a tire off the wheel and apply a proper patch-plug, every other option isn’t worth it.

Slime, fix-a-flat, or similar can destroy tire pressor sensors so you should only use them for a tiny hole and you have ABS pressor sensors.

The rubber plug style ones without a patch don’t hold up as well compared to rope plugs. I have had those fail but rope plugs kept sealed well enough to wear out the tire.

I keep a set of rope plugs and a tire inflator in the trunk, if a spare or those doesn’t sort out the problem then I’m getting a tow.
