Screw in tyre, removed, no air loss - is this an issue?

[Brett748]

Hi all,

This may be a silly question but I’ve removed a screw from my brand new PS5, there is no air loss but the entry hole remains.

Should I replace the tyre or is there no issue if it is just the tread block?





Thanks

drive it, if it does ever go down in the future, think of the additional time you have had. It is also unlikely to blow, just go down.

It looks like you are lucky and it is just the tread-block. Test it with a blunt pencil for depth, and compare to the tread block.

As can clearly be seen from the angle that the screw went in, the screw would need to be about 3" long to get through the full tyre.

Thanks all.

I’ve not had a puncture for about ten years then got two screws within a couple of months.
