So I get home this morning and as im exiting my car I hear this loud hissing noise. Now im thinking its the sprinkler system because I see it in. I walk around to the passenger side and I can hear it even louder. Im able to place my finger over the hole which is in the middle of the tire where the tread is.

My question is I know sometimes they are unable to plug or patch a flat if the hole isnt on the tread? Is that true?
I've never really caught a flat tire where I've taken it to the mechanic. I usually use that fix it flat.

Plus I wanted to go to best buy this morning.
