Nail in tyre is it dangerous?

What are you talking about?

A heat ring?

Just noticed the side wall, it is a Davanti.

Just change the tyre for one that actually works.

I'm not sure either. Think it may be an American term. It means when the tyre is driven at low pressure it can damage the wall and looks like a ring or something. What's wrong with davanti. The tyre centre near me who I was going to go to in the morning put that tyre on for me last time for £60. I asked is it a decent tyre they said yes

If you zoom in on the head of the screw you can see a very faint ring around it about twice the diameter of the screw head. Prolonged high speed would get that screw pretty hot

But, it would only get as hot as the tyre.

it wouldn't surprise me if that was reason for some blow-outs.

Maybe 50/50 on that one, as surely the screw will be well threaded into the tyre carcass, so maybe not as clear cut as you say.

I was guessing that the screw could get a lot hotter than the tyre based on pulling one out last summer. We'd just exited a car park where building work was in progress, to hear a rythmic clicking from the front left. Suspected it was a stone in the tread but pulled over barely a mile away to find a brand new screw sticking out at an angle. Gave it a wiggle to see how far in it was and it was pretty hot to the touch, while the tyre was still cool. Fortunately it was short and in the deepest part of the tread so easily removed.

I would have thought the tyre carcass/wheel combination would be a sufficently large heat sink to equalise the temperature but it it seems not. I could still be wrong about the heat ring as I'd never heard of it before, that was another shot in the dark.

Or it could just be that as the rubber of the tyre is an insulator that it naturally feels cooler that the screw which is a better conductor of heat.
