Sorry to see it.

In Germany not possible for 300+ rated tyres. You wont find anybody to do it.
Other locations might be possible. It seems it is not on the shoulder.

Is it loosing air? Maybe just unscrew it. Might not be that big.

If those aren't your track tires I would even plug it and move on........Phil

Yes, should be ok to plug/patch.

These are for the street.

No serious air loss, but I think it just happened today. I'm pretty sure it's small - about a 1 cm long if I had to guess.

Good read here:

Interesting. I'm thinking the screw is exactly the same length (although his was in a much more questionable spot on the shoulder). Good to know. Hopefully this one didn't pierce through.

I patched one of my tires with a screw in almost that exact location. 2 track days and general road miles later and no worries.

I'm feeling better about it now.

Patch or plug remains the question, I guess. I had always thought that outside plugs were considered no bueno, but maybe I'm wrong on that?

I keep a plug kit in my car with the slim and compressor.....I've plugged many tires and haven't had a issue. I even plugged a tire on my motorcycle before and ran it until it was time for fresh rubber.........Phil

Spray some dish soap water mix on it . If no bubbles just pull it out.
If bubbles plug/ patch from the inside is best. Although hate to say it I have had no problem with plugs inc track. The main thing is not near the edge and dip the plug in valconising cement. Carl

I've plugged tires many times on our cars. Never had any problems. Balance was never affected. Like one of the earlier posters said, I carry a plug kit in every car, along with a pliers to pull out the offending nail/screw.

As many people stated, just plug it. I did this twice on my car, no problem. Even took it to track a few times.

I've run both patched and plugged tires and not had issues. Patch seems to be the more confidence-inspiring solution, but it's obviously more time-consuming and difficult since it requires a tire mounting machine, whereas a plug can be implemented at the track if you pick up a nail there. Tire Rack says that the recommended solution is to do both.
