As Mike said, the only way to keep air from getting in between the plies and
separating them is with an internal patch, so that's what tire stores around
here do.

Unless you've driven your new Yokie over a piece of shingle dropped by some
sloppy @*^&ing roofers and the 4 holes thereby created  make the guy at the
tire store decline even a patch....
