How to remove a screw from a tire?

[Big Forum User]

My grandpa managed to get a screw lodged in his car tire. It's deflating as I type. What should I suggest to him that he do?

Take to some place that can take the screw out, patch it, reseal it, and re-inflate it. ((some oil change places to tires, too, but call ahead to make sure))
I don't know any DIY jobs for that problem, though.

Chances are you need to take it to a shop and get it removed and plugged/patched.

Ninja'd again mate?

Is it like a really sharp screw? Take the wheel out after it deflates. Just replace the wheel after. You won't be able to do anything unless you quickly take the screw out and patch the whole with duct tape or something.

we're not sure how big the screw is, just that it's deflating the tire.

You won't be able to put it out yourself most likely. And if you do, a big hole will be left. I'd say leave it in & let a mechanic take a look. You wouldn't want the tire to explode when you're picking at it.
