You are far more likely to pick up a nail in a tire than have a blow out. I recommend a tire plug kit. True, that is not the ideal way to repair a puncture. But if you are traveling on a Sunday or there are no nearby shops open, you can get the tire roadworthy in 30 minutes.
Not to mention that If if I break down close to home, I can get a tow home and work on it later. Traveling back and forth to work is a whole different dynamic than towing my trailer on a long trip. Note the quote in my sig. I want to have fun, not adventures.

If you're prepared(even new stuff breaks), then not as much "plastic" is needed. And who wants to wait several hours for someone to rescue you on the side of the road? Being prepared also allows me to help others.
