Ohhhhhh man if it's bout 1-2 inches away from sidewall of the tire, it's not safe to drive if plugged or patch because soft side will affect your turning and could possible pop any mintue. I recommend you to replace the tire, I work at the Nissan dealership and I seen alot of those and mostly get replaced because too close to the sidewall
