What’s your prediction? New tire or plug/patch?

Good to hear, did they use a plug or a patch?
The receipt says “combination patch-plug”. So, I’m not entirely sure. I probably should have asked.

Patch with hopefully a thinner plug attached, than the size of a plug only.
Good combo.

That blue cone is really what keeps the cross brace holding the tire up.
You take that blue cone off to literally allow slipping the cross-brace thru the hole to remove the tire.

Don't trust that a tech that couldn't look up or know how that goes back on - would get the tire pulled back up in a manner to not shift at all, so that it might fall off.
Would take a little work - but whose saying they did rest of it correctly.
