A plug is better than a patch. I used a plug kit on my Michelin Defenders on my 13" VX rims and drove thousands of miles more... only stopped using them when I swapped-in the 15" MINI rims.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
