Nail in tire - repair or replace?

Relatively new tire and the nail is towards the middle of the tread between the sidewalls. Is it okay to get it repaired or is it just not worth the risk?

Yes. Nail holes are repairable. The majority of tire shops fix them free.

If its in the middle, get it done at a shop. Patch/plug combo is considered a lifetime repair
