Flat tire - repair?

Man, got a pretty good puncture rear passenger tire. I watched the PSI counting down as I'm driving. When I got out to put some air in the tire...louddddd hissssss :-(

Dropped it off at the BMW dealership.
Anyone know if BMW repairs tires?

Even if they don't, I doubt they will have the tire in stock, but I'd be willing just to buy a new tire, just to get back on the road...need to be back on the road tomorrow.

I’m going to guess they don’t repair - too much liability. They will replace of course. A tire shop will plug for 20 bucks if the puncture isn’t near the rim. But even then they don’t give a receipt for deniabiltty

I always carry plugs and a plugging tool in the trunk.
