Maxalami plugs work for me. removing a tubeless tyre is not wothout risk. bead stretch can mean refitting is a problem.
I only carry tyre plugs, no tubes, no tyre boots and yet I mamange to plug some proper whoppers. The fix for the big holes may not be long term but a tyre with a big hole is fit for the bin in my book. I did that with tubes. Tyres where the plug holds at 80 psi get used. In general I get tot wear tyres out as plugs do work. I think when people say plugs dont work they have been using Genuine innovations or the weldite kits but these plugs are not as sticky so are more easily pushed out.

Cool.
Yes, I tried everything else. Glue, anchovies etc, but nothing was straightfoward (IMHO), but the patches work great because the pressure ensures a perfect seal. Just make sure the area is clean for a good contact.
