Got nailed...

I got the warning that pressure of the front right tire was low. I checked it out and saw a nail head very close to the wall. Obviously, I need to fix that, but I might have to get a new tire if they say they can't fix it.
So I have four questions...

1. Should I buy exact same OEM tire or Michelin Pilot Sport A/S instead?
2. If yes, can I just buy one instead of two?
3. If not, again, can I just buy one OEM tire or two?
4. Do you suggest to go to the dealer or place like "Just Tires"? Because JT covers repairs and replacement free for the life of the tires...or any other better place to buy?

Thanx...

1. If you want to replace all four tires, sure you can replace them with Pilot Sport A/S. But replacing only one....no. See 2,3 below.

2,3. The answer directly from the RL manual

4. I bought my two tires elsewhere and had them mounted at the dealer.....but only because they have a Hunter Roadforce balancer.
