Can you drive with a nail in your tyre?
You will need to check whether the nail has pierced the tyre or not. A short screw or tack can easily get wedged in the deep tread of a new tyre without damaging it – so take a close look, as you might be lucky.
If there is evidence that the nail has gone right through, then you should get the tyre repaired or replaced as soon as possible. There are examples of people driving for many miles before noticing nails in their tyres. New tyres will usually cope better with this, but it’s smart to be vigilant and give your vehicle a quick check before setting off on a long-distance drive.
Here at Halfords, we want to keep you moving. That’s why we can replace your tyres in over 600 garages nationwide. Or, why not make life easier and get your tyre replaced at your home or workplace through our Mobile Experts. Available 7 days a week, our Mobile Expert service provides the most convenient way to get your tyres fitted.
