if your sidewall is rotted enough to let air through, you're an absolute moron to drive on that tire, and thats all i have to say.

No reason to get upset here. Most people have a full sized spare in case something like this happens and you need a new one on ASAP.

I know, I mean I'm not saying it's not my fault for not being prepared. I found these tires pretty cheap and was just using them to get by until August. I bought them in June, didn't expect this to happen so soon.

Hit up the scrapyard for a matching tire. $10-20 tops. About the same thing you're going to pay to patch the unpatchable. Any sort of repair in that area will fail quickly, at the worst possible time.
