Hi - Just noticed a screw in one of my run flats, dont want to take it out until after I drop the mrs at Heathrow tomorrow. It's pretty central and tyre has plenty of tread. Is this just a repair job at quick fit, any advice?

cheers

I had a screw in a tyre that was only 900 miles old, I left it in for a few months then had the hole plugged. Cost around £15.
I had the same a few years back but not with a run flat, it was near edge so they didnt want to do so I said just do it and dont put it though your books. gave him 20 quid and he fixed it. (kwik fit)

I think I will be ok as i am not pulling screw out so wont damage walls . I will pull it out at a garage and if it goes down they can fix it.
