FYI: If you use that slime stuff and take the tire to get patched they will more than likely charge you extra to clean up the slime of the inside of your tire to affix the patch.

You'll be fine.
Yeah, a patch is the best but costs more for obviouse reasons.
And a plug works good as well. I had two tires on an F-350 van(17.5 inch rim!) that were plugged 3 times on one and one on the other thanks to the neighbours little puke who so creatively placed large nails inbetween the tread blocks (No I couldn't prove it... Bla bla bla... But I :knew he did it... Got em back my way!)
Anyway, those tires were brand new with 9 miles on them. They lasted over 60K with no issues.
Slime...
What do you expect for $10.00 a bottle!
Used to carry/use a product from the UK. An actual tyre mousse. Now that worked!
I can see why WRC teams uses it in factory ralley cars.
$ 70.00 plus a bottle!
