Can a tire with a nail still be used if it's not leaking air?

Tire with a nail can still be used depending on the situation. First, determine whether it is leaking air and how severe the leakage is. After locating the position of the nail, apply some soapy water with foam around it, then observe whether there is air leakage or bubbles forming, and how severe the phenomenon is. If there is no air leakage, you can temporarily rest assured and drive a short distance, but do not ignore it just because it's not leaking. You should drive at a low speed to the nearest repair shop. If the air leakage is severe, then stop using this tire. If you have a spare tire, you can replace it. If there is no spare tire, call (including insurance and nearby repair shops) for towing and repair. Safety first. Most new cars are equipped with tubeless tires, which, even if punctured, won't burst or leak air as quickly as before. In many cases, they are pierced by small nails, and even if the nail is inside, there might be no air leakage, so do not pull it out immediately. Moreover, a completely non-leaking tubeless tire will continuously lose air as the tire pressure decreases, and some tires with higher pressure might even burst on the spot, causing unnecessary personal injury.
