Nail in tire

So I go to my beauty this morning and find the pressure in the left rear is -9.

Looked at it and found a flat head nail.

5,000 miles on these yoko's what to do???

Patch and plug the one tire and be done, OR replace just it, OR replace all 4 tires, and if the later with what brand will give me best comfort/sport and quietness and longevity??

Thanks

J

Patch and plug. I have done this a number of times.

If you ever have to replace one tire, you could buy one and have it shaved to the same height as the other 3. I had to do this once when I was half way through the life of my tires and destroyed one tire. No need to buy 4 new ones.

Taking it in today for a patch and plug. Sure all will be fine, we'll see.
Will start to search for the next best set of tires for their replacement....
