    Your local tyre shop can also plug it for around $25, that's $575 in your pocket

    Not sure about sidewall damage but im getting another rim and making a spare out of the damaged tyre as I am not a huge fan of plugs.

    And they are csc3 255 45 r18.

    You'll have clearance issuses undernieth with the 18in spare, and there's a pretty good chance the wheel and tyre wont fit in the spare wheel carrier anyway.

    Hence the mobility kit.

    Not wanting to be the fun police but are those tyres load rated for a multivan?

    They better be! Original tyres... 103Y. Hence the sore backside I now have. And to top it off the tyre is cactus.
