shoulder or sidewall is a big no no for patching..had to just replace tires as well because of it...was on the inside of the tire so was a little trickier to find. Tire I had on it was 185 out the door...went to tires plus and they were able to get me 2 new tires for 190 out the door...so I got 2 instead of one...they were 18's too...new tires dont have the cold weather grip my old ones had but they are livable in the snow.
Pretty sure in 15 years of driving I've never had a nail in a tire. Now to find some wood to knock on. Brb...
Luckily I work in an architecture office and had a wood sample next to my desk.
nate my 1st nail happened just a few weeks ago (16 years of driving as im 32 ;-)
good luck!
Got my ventvisors put on this afternoon.
