I tried plugging it with the usual plugs only to find that the hole was too small and I needed to make it bigger with a power drill. The tires have a foam layer inside which were proving difficult to drill into it.
At the same time, our local ice cream truck pulled up and handed me a few of these rubber screw plugs.
Said he uses them in his double axle Ice cream truck when he has flats and they hold up well.
It took a few seconds to scew it on with the drill and its held up in my wife's Tesla for the last few weeks!
In for one!
Community Reviews
These screw in tire plugs are a fast roadside fix for tubeless tires, especially when you need to get home, reach a shop, or handle lawn equipment, ATVs, trailers, and other hard to patch tires. The kit is praised for simple installation, and several real punctures held for weeks, months, or even thousands of miles without losing air. The main caution is that they are still treated as temporary by many, with some repairs slowly leaking or needing replacement, and a proper inside patch remains the long term fix. A handy emergency option when you need a quick seal and can monitor pressure.
Common Questions (5)
They can last from a day or two to months or even years, depending on the puncture and installation. Several reports describe them holding air for weeks, months, or thousands of miles, while others needed replacement after slow leaks or used them only as a temporary fix before a proper inside patch.
No. They are best treated as a temporary roadside fix to get to a tire shop, because the proper long-term repair is dismounting the tire and patching it from the inside.
Yes. The kit is used by pulling the nail or screw, then screwing the plug in with a screwdriver or drill driver; some users also add rubber cement for easier insertion. The included pliers and screwdriver are considered useful, and some people pre-pack the pieces for roadside use.
Yes, they can work on Model Y tires, including foam-lined ones, and have been used successfully on punctures that were hard to handle with standard plugs. One report says the plug held for weeks after drilling through the foam layer, while another says a Model Y repair later switched to a regular glue plug after the screw-in plug slowly leaked.
Yes. They have been used on tubeless lawn equipment, ATVs, off-road UTVs, mini bikes, mower tires, and trailer tires, especially where regular rope plugs are hard to fit or the tire is too thin. Some of those repairs held permanently, while others were only short-lived.

I haven't used these but was recommended them from a friend that had. I've only used the old rope-like ones. When I had a truck I would pick up many nails, screws, and such from roads and while off-roading, and those always did me right.

I've tried the rope plug kits in the past but never had much luck with being able to plug it properly and they get messy.
Yeah old style plugs have served me well, supposed to be temporary but if done right I haven't had issues lasted the life of the tire a few times.
