I have a set of Hoosier Quick Time Pros (like MT ET STreets). I just found a hole in the tread area of the tire. I was able to plug it and it holds air fine.
Is it okay to run it with a plug? I wonder how the plug will hold up to burning out especially.
I would rather not take it to get patched since I am using bead screws, and I am concerned the shop won't be able to line up the holes after they do the patch. The holes will leak for sure.
Right now I am thinking about just running them with the plug and keeping an eye on the situation. I could always replug them at the track if necessary. I think if I really trim the plug down short it won't be a problem though.
