It turns out that it can't be patched. I ended up ordering the tire through the Nissan dealership who is matching the Tire Rack's price shipped and should do a good job mounting and balancing it. It sucks, but at least I won't have to worry about it.

Costco was significantly more $ and didn't seem very confident about mounting the tire w/o messing up the wheel.

Mounting the tire I could understand I guess.....Tire price well...... Tire Rack has a special right now on them for $179 + $57 shipping. Costco A $206 with no shipping cost....I guess its cheaper if you say so...

maybe where you live...it's around $20 to get one tire shipped to me from the tire rack and there is no tax, which is what the dealership matched.

So the $7 was the significant difference? And now you still have no Road Hazard warranty so if this happens again your out another $200....

No hassles with ANYTHING they do
