"Obviously, I wouldn't think of plugging the sidewall on a car tire, . . ."
And WHY NOT?
Back when I had my '67 Toyota Landcruiser, I got a 3 inch rock slice in the sidewall of one of my 6-ply Tubeless Kelley-Springfield Silvertown Trailmaker Mud & Snow tires. The slice went all the way through with about a 1 inch slice on the inside. I thoroughly cleaned the inside of the tire around the slice with Tire Solvent and then applied a 4 inch square Hot Vulcanizing Patch over the slice. After the Hot Patch had cooled, I again cleaned the inside of the tire including the back of the Hot Patch, with Solvent. Then I applied an 8 inch Hot Vulcanizing BOOT over the Hot Patch. I used that repaired tire for another 22,000 Miles; I replaced the tires several years later with a little over 47,000 Miles on that set of tires.
