Should the Nail in the Tire Be Pulled Out?
1 Answers
It is recommended not to pull out the nail by yourself. Instead, drive the car to a professional tire shop where trained staff can remove the nail and inspect the puncture. Here are some tips for car tire maintenance: 1. Check tire pressure: Neither too high nor too low pressure is good. Adjust it appropriately according to the situation. For example, when the road is slippery or the weather is hot, the pressure should be lower, and the tire should not be overinflated. When the temperature drops suddenly, the tire pressure must be replenished to cope with low-temperature road conditions. 2. Check for tire damage: Carefully inspect for possible tire cracks, uneven wear, or rim cracks, and replace them if necessary. 3. Regular tire rotation: The front and rear tires bear different weights and wear unevenly. Therefore, after a certain mileage, rotate the front and rear tires to maximize their use and extend their lifespan. 4. Pay attention to the distance between the tread and the wear indicator: Generally, if the distance is within 2-3mm, the tire should be replaced. Additionally, if the tire is punctured on the sidewall, the owner must not follow the advice of quick repair shops to patch it but should replace the tire immediately. Otherwise, the consequences could be severe. Since the sidewall is very thin, it cannot withstand the weight of the car after repair and is prone to blowouts.
