Having worked in a tire shop, I've seen many slow leaks from plugged tires. If it needs repair, I much prefer an "umbrella" patch that is a combination of inside patch and plug all in one. And if the leak is even close to the shoulder or sidewall, replace the tire.
I've had several umbrella patch/plugs installed INSIDE only, and they never leaked.
Of course IMHO if tire is made in China I'd personally replace it.
