If you can get someone to repair the tire correctly for 15 bucks it's a bargain. I have a plug kit I keep around for emergencies because around here it is nearly impossible to find anyone who will fix a flat on the weekend. But for a repair to any tire I plan to drive on the highway, I take it in and insist that it be repaired off the rim.

One of my pet peeves is so-called "repairmen" who insist that a plug is a good as a patch. (Of course it's even better for them because they can plug a tire on the vehicle in a couple of minutes, but it's hard work to repair a tire off the rim.) If a shop even suggests that they plug the tire on the rim, I walk out the door.
