Who's saying the truth? The location of the nail/screw seems to be a safe location to be plugged...

And if fixable, where should I go?

Picture?

What picture?

There's no picture here.


Run, don't walk, to your nearest O'Rielly's or Napa Auto Parts for a flat repair kit. It's nothing to ream a nail hole & insert a plug - your tire will see a long and fruitful life so long as it's not a sidewall jab.
