I got a hole in the corner of my 17 inch fuzion tire and it is pretty much brand new and I need it plugged or patched again. It keeps going down in pressure (up to 10 psi overnight) and its in the front of the car on the inside edge of the tire, will it help at all if I move it to the rear and have it replugged? I'm a poor college student and can't afford to buy another tire and check the pressure 5125 times a day, help!!

If it's not across the width of the tread - and it sounds like it's not - then you shouldn't repair it.

I can assure you that if you can't afford to buy another tire, you certainly can't afford to drive on an unsafe tire and get into an accident!

Sell you 17 wheels and tires. Then you will be able to afford 14 steels and rubber for them.

I too was a poor university student up until this weekend. I drove on 13" wheels for that reason. Should I need a new tire it will cost me very little.
