Question

Help answer this question below.

I have a nail in my tire! Ive put air in now, so I can get it to the tire shop in the morning! In the mean time, Should I park the car where the nail is against the cement to prevent the air from leaking or is this a bad idea?

    this is an age old question
    I prefer not to beacuse putting the weight on the nail can rip the tire more
    change to the spare and/or buy yourself a 12v DC air pump from any major AP store
    some are as cheap as $20

    i would leave the nail towards the the top of the tire. most of the time it seals it , at least until u can get to the tire shop.
