Is it safe to drive after repairing a tire punctured by a nail?
1 Answers
A tire punctured by a nail can generally be used normally after repair, except in the following three cases: 1. Severe tire wear, where the tread is below the safety line, it is recommended to replace the tire immediately. 2. The tire has bulges or cracks. If there are bulges or cracks on the tire sidewall or tread, it indicates serious internal damage, and it is not recommended to continue using the tire. 3. A tire that has been repaired multiple times. When driving at high speeds, the patches may fall off, leading to sudden tire blowouts, so it is advisable to replace the tire as soon as possible. Summary: Under normal circumstances, a tire punctured by a nail can continue to be used after professional repair. However, for safety reasons, if the tire shows any of the above three conditions, it is recommended to replace the new tire as soon as possible and stop using it further.
