Tire
Need your opinion. I pulled a small screw from my tire, less than a 1/4". It is not leaking, not on the side wall. Should I go leave it or get it check?...TY

Get it checked!! A tire failure on the can cause a lot of damage.

Mark it Then remove the screw if no air is leaking you are ok. If it is leaking have it repaired. The Mark will make it easier to locate if it needs repair.

If the screw was 1/4 inch long and in the tread you should be OK if its not leaking although it is easy to get it checked for peace of mind.

Check by local tire retailer beats a slow leak/blowout on the road.

Why not have it checked? Probably costs nothing.
