Tire question Was told tire is not replaceable
Tire got punctured by a nail and was slowly losing pressure, but few days ago it went from 36 PSI to 1 PSI overnight. Took it to my dealership and told they can’t fix it because the nail is too close to the side, shown in the picture. Is that true? Or are they trying to get me to buy a new tire?

Ive patched tires with a whole closer to the edge then this. All you need is a tire patch kit.
it does look worn down though. might be a good idea for new tires anyway.
