Hi John,

That was my case exactly.

When I had a nail in one of the tires of my BFG's, circa 1995 build date, Discount Tire sent me to a tire shop where English was the second language to have the the tire plugged. Fortunately, I was able to source a brand new set of Toyo's for my 8's & 10's 15" wheels and I was on the road again feeling safe with the new shoes on my Cat.
