Suggestions - screw in tire
While changing my fog light bulbs the other day, I realized there was a screw in my run flat tires. I\'m not sure how long it\'s been there, but I haven\'t noticed any drop in pressure or anything of that sort. What would you guys recommend I do? I don\'t know if you\'re able to fix run flats or not. Thanks in advance.

Wherever it is, in my experience you'll have to fix it yourself. No wheel/tire shop I've ever been to has been willing to patch or plug run-flats.

I also have a screw in the middle of my 6-month old rear non-run flat PSS
Noticed this when I put on my winter tires. What's better, plug or patch?

I just noticed a huge nail in my RFT. Brought it to discount tire and they fixed if for free

I took mine to sears. There was a nail in the center of the tread. It's been fine for 10k miles.

I wouldn't recommend any at home repair, they are usually temporary at best.
