| I had a slow leak from a Michelin Pilot tire on an old 3 series bmw.  The 
nail I found in it was about 1 inch from the shoulder of the tire.  Took the 
tire off and to a Goodyear tire store to have it repaired (its close to 
work).  He told me he couldn't fix it because it's a speed rated tire and 
the puncture was too close to the sidewall.
Is this right or was he trying to sell me a new tire?  I took my tire and 
left.
Thanks for your input.
