I pick up nails in my truck tires from time to time and use the PLUG method to fix them.
I think if I ever had a trailer tire pick up a nail I would worry myself sick if I just plugged it due to the weight of the trailer. The patch inside would be my fix after I got back home with trailer. Changing out the trailer tire when on the road is more involved than changing out the truck tire.
My plugged trailer tire would fail me right away at the most far out and desolate spot - KARMA would see to that haha...
I am out in the back country alot with my truck and off-road POPUP setup and so far haven't picked up any nails on my trips. I have got a alot of sidewall scrapes and bruises from dragging over rocks and things... I do carry a PLUG KIT and 12VDC Air Compressor for PLAN Bs...
