I'd replace it with a 250mm. But I have been looking for a reason to see if a 250 would fit!

This tire has only lost 1/2 lb. in 3 days, makes me wanna just stab it, slowest leak I have ever seen

That would bite, but you've only got 2 tires...a plugged tire blowing out on you in a 4 wheeled vehicle, while dangerous,isn't necessarily deadly...whole different world on a bike...tires aren't cheap, but my life is worth more than a tire...but that's just me.

You want to replace the tire, or put a tube in it. I had a flat on the rear and the problem first showed up as a wobble in the front end. It wasn't till I pulled over that I realized it was on the back. Wouldn't want to experience that with a blowout. Plugging that tire will cause uneven temperatures in the tire and possibly a blowout
