Road hazard warranty through Sam's Club

Purchased brand-new tires at the end of January. Less than 5K miles on them. One of the tires has a nail in the sidewall and cannot be repaired. The tires (Yokohama) that I purchased are no longer carried by Sam's Club.
Their solution for now is to offer a replacement tire made by Bridgestone, Pirelli, or Michelin.
Would you accept a mismatched tire brand with so many few miles on the new set of tires? Or would you want all 4 tires to match? My preference is to have all four tires of the same brand.
The 800 # to Sam's Club is worthless as it appears to be outsourced to out of the country.

I wouldn’t want mismatched set but I guess I would do what I had to do

If it’s in the warranty that it can be a comparable for whatever reason, then don’t know what you can do. I wouldn’t go in hot though. See if they will work with you. I learned my lesson at a young age from your situation.
Maybe eat it on the tire somewhere else and just get them rotated for free at Sam’s so often it washes?
Or, get the tire that they have put on a rim and sell it. Use cash for other tire? Just brainstorming.
This will probably be my last set from Sam’s since I moved closer to a Costco so I’ll prob have to find a diff brand if they don’t have Goodyear. Also, my spare is always a match. I usually rotate it through the cycle of wear outs.

I wouldn't want mismatched tires but I can't expect then to give you a new set either go roll ove nails with the other 3 problem solved

Ask for 2 new replacement tires, so you can at least have matching tires on each axle.

I know this probably isn't your preference, but there's a Mexican tire shop on Coursey that will plug it for you for $10 (cash only) in about 5 minutes and it will probably hold up.
I got this done on my wife's car recently. Same scenario except no tire warranty and that Michelin had 1k miles on it.

Find another place that still carries your matched tire. This is not difficult. Tire manufacturers do not actually honor a nail in a tire to be replaced.

Being that you have only 5000 miles on them. I would tell them to find me a new matching tire or replace all 4 at no cost

If the tire is still being produced, Sam's can get it & they must.

Read the warranty terms and conditions to see what it says about discounted tires.
Also you can try to get a refund for the warranty.

Nobody pays attention to the tires on your car.
Nobody looks at them and thinks, “What a loser! This dude’s tires are all different so he makes poor life choices and is not to be trusted.”
Take the warranty tire and life will still go on.

Have them put on whatever they have in stock. Go home and jam a nail in another tire and have them put on one like you just got. Keep doing this until you have a complete set. Problem solved.
