Is this in the non-patchable zone, or just outside?

Sidewall. No patch.

Carbeaux is correct. It can not be patched.

 

[beason]

yea thats not even close. how did that happen?

 

[bestatchess]

Looks like you pissed somebody off.

very outside....not even bedliner would hide that one

 

[mcginkleschmidt]

I'm in agreement with the others, no patch. An inside patch might hold for a while but there is too much flex in that tire portion for a long term repair. May as well replace the tire and be done with it.

This gets my vote for best reply of the week.

Chunk it and get a new one. Most tire places wouldn't even think twice about trying to fix that.

 

[DeadRiver]

Sorry to reinforce the bad news, new tire required.

I just learned this too. My sister has a knack for hitting pot holes

patch won't hold but a plug will.. i drove my front left tire 2k miles with patch and it popped but the plug held till the tire was toast...the hole in mine was much larger.. if you do fix it put it in the rear.

It's a winter tire, so I have time let it sit there and pi$$ me off for a while. Don't know how it happened, but I got home from work and thought, hey, this is a great day to change the oil and get the summer tires on, and then I went to take this off, and was like WHAT THE F. There is a huge amount of construction on my commute, so that is what I blame.

Thanks for the attention everyone.
