I'm sure I'll get yelled down by the car gurus here... but if the tire isn't actually leaking air--and it might not be, sometimes the nail completely plugs the hole it makes--there's really no need to have it repaired. I drove with a gigantic construction nail in one of my tires for about 18 months, and ultimately replaced the tire for tread wear without ever needing an air refill.
