You mean a plug? I have the plugs you insert from the outside, but what I had done, is where they remove the tire from the wheel, plug and patch from the inside wall, then mount and rebalance.

So why did you expect them to mount your spare for free?

No offense, but if you asked them to put the donut on your car, you should of owed them labor. Regardless of if you had to help or not. Should of just done it yourself and told them to fuck off.

You drive a BMW and cant afford a new tire ? Thats why they wanted to charge you , why should someone else mount your spare for free? I think its pretty fucked up that you drive a BMW and have to shop around for a tire repair
