Tubeless tyre - nail puncture

SolidusSnake · 26th February 2021, 20:40

Sorry digging up a old thread, but found this to be the relevant thread. Today in the morning, I was about to drive off to work in my new Creta, the society guard pointed out that there is a nail in the front driver side tyre. As I was in rush, I drove off. So now about 12 hours have passed since then and I have driven about 40 kms and as per TPMS there is no drop in air pressure.

So should I wait till air pressure starts dropping or straight away get it repaired?

Get it repaired when you can. It doesn't look urgent since there's no pressure drop and the nail looks snug fit. But it's still a foreign object, so the next time you pass by a tyre shop, have it attended to.
