Patched tire - should I swap?

I drive a 14 T4R that's 3 months old and has 2800 miles on it. Other than Entune issues, so far so good.

I got a flat tire 2 weeks ago when I ran over a bolt that's about 1/4 inch in diameter. The hole in the tire is between the grooves, probably the best place it could be in. The tire was fixed with a patch that also has a tube that they stuck thru the hole from the inside.

Question for the experts here is, should I swap the repaired tire with the spare? It's $50 to do the swap and about 2 hours of my time. Worth it? Or is the patched tire 'good as new'?:shrug:

Thanks.
