I can hear it going round. Its in the back rear passenger tyre.
Can it be plugged? I'm scared to remove it incase the tyre goes flat. And everything is shut tomorrow because of bank Holiday so it will be Tuesday i can get it sorted.
have you got a spare to put on ?
how far do you need to travel ? (if at all)
should be ok if your not going up and down the motorway etc, if to the shops and back that's fine, otherwise i wouldn't risk it
The tyre will be fine if it only goes flat on the bottom, the time to worry is if it goes flat on the top, that's when things really start to get scary!!

tyres are round, they dont go flat top or bottom
Seen that before because I forgot to pay my Dartford Toll Charge. I checked my ring door cam and I saw Dartford Toll Charge employees placing items infront of my tyres on the drive way.
After showing them the footage, they paid for a replacement tyre and waived the charge.
Well ard', innit'.

Might not be so easy if it's a run flat tyre
Still should be repairable - think the sides are more reinforced.
That's an old golf shoe stud, a metal one at that since the modern ones are plastic / rubber. The screw part that goes into the sole of the shoe will be shallower than the groove in your tyre. Just flick it out.

The item in the OP has 3 holes but a golf stud only has two but your image has several more.
