Fuck turned out to be a pretty good sized nail. Sprayed some soapy water on it and no bubbles that i can see. Should be ok right? It's a miata so the fastest i can realistically go is 160km/hr.
>>28453331 >>28453332 i have no idea what scale that fob is. it might not have fully penetrated keep monitoring the air pressure, if it doesnt drop, you're fine. do mark your tire where that nail went or you'll never find it again
>>28453362 Too lazy to find that exact type but it's like this.

>>28453338 The nail is just over 5/8", based on the insertion I'd guess it went in about 9/16" and at an angle to the tread. Tires are fairly new, about 2.5k km on them with some wear because RWD tire.

>>28453332 >>28453331 its in a very easily repairable spot for a plug. i hand my mechanic a $20 CAD note and he plugs it for me just plug it and then consider looking for deals on new tires, dont run it until it gets worse like an idiot unless you carry a spare and trust your TPMS ....

>>28453290 (OP) WTF it's not a sidewall puncture - you leave it in until you get to a tire shop and they patch it.
